    Liberals/leftists can face down a gunman with harsh words. This is what they get for supporting policies restricting access. I wonder how they like waiting for a HQL?

    Regardless, having a weapon is not as crucial as having motivation and skills.

    Yup. Most wouldn't have the stones to drop a bunny, let alone a marauder.

    This is something I think about a lot. I don’t hunt, so I don’t have a lifetime of experience shooting living things. But I own, I practice, and I think about various situations so that if I am in such situation, I already know what I’ll do. I am trying to as ready as i can be, to offset panic. The thought of shooting another person is absolutely horrible to me, as it is (I hope) to everyone on here, including hunters. But having someone attack me or my family, unprovoked, with deadly force is even worse. So I hope to have fun at the range and never have to have this actually put to a real world test.

    I have trained intensely to have the mentality that allows me to do it.

    If I needed to protect my family I would not hesitate to do it.

    I have practiced enough to know that if I were to do it I can do it quickly and effectively.

    But it is the absolute last thing I ever want to do. If all my training, mental and physical, is wasted and never used to defend my family....that is fine. That is more than fine. I will be happy if I die an old man have never needed to use lethal force.

    I've been close twice. Like 'safety off' close. It is not a good feeling. And not one I have no desire to feel again.

    The first rule of self defense is to try your best to avoid having to use self defense.
    However, sometimes that need finds you. When it does, there's no going half assed. You make that threat know they picked the wrong day to mess with the wrong M Fer.

    Warrior 12, a great charity shirt shop that helps families of first responders and military, has a great one.

    It's like performing the Heimlich maneuver on yourself (bear with me).

    I found myself alone working in a customer's house, a doctor no less, when my airway became blocked. I tried blowing the obstruction out several times without luck. I looked out the sliding glass door and saw a nice iron porch with a sturdy iron railing. As i fumbled with the locks and bars(running out of air fast now), I gave one more abdominal thrust and the obstruction flew out, hitting the glass and smacking back in the face.

    The moral of the story. From the moment I lost my airway, I knew what I needed to do without thinking about. I knew I had to do the most gnarly bellyflop on that rail or I was gonna die!

    For most of us, we'll know what to do and not do a lot of introspection in the process. You'll know if you hesitate, you're gonna die. I promise you.

    What was in your airway, and how did it get in there? I feel like I'm stepping into a joke of some sort.

    I knew this would come up.

    I lay floors for a living. I was laying a parquet floor that day comprised of 1"x6" slats, on a diagonal. As you saw through them(on a diagonal), you get little triangular pieces of wood you need to save for placement. I always picked those pieces up off my bandsaw as I cut through them and held them in my lips like a cigarette. Once the cut is done, I place the pieces into the glue on the floor.

    The one thing I learned that day was, when you cough, you actually bring air into your lungs before the cough. That day, I inhaled a 1"x 3/16" triangular piece of red oak down my wind pipe. :o

    Believe me, it was no joke! LOL

    Shit, that sounds scary. It will make me think twice the next time I’m taping off something for paint, with a razor blade in my mouth.

    Ed Zachary! Every time I see a wallpaper hanger with a blade in their mouth, I tell that story. I watch TV and see every actor trying to be a carpenter, putting nails in their mouth makes me cringe. Nobody really put nails in their mouth!

    I have helped a few libs....the ones I have are libs, but they are still good people. This may be a changing point for many of them and help us in the long run.
