2ND AMENDMENT, FOOD FOR THOUGHT

THE 2ND AMENDMENT....
This  is the law:  The purpose of fighting is to win.  There is no possible victory  in defense.  The sword is more important than the shield and  skill  is more important than either.  The final weapon is the brain.  All  else is supplemental.  As John Steinbeck once said.

1.   Don't pick a fight with an  old man.  If he is to old to fight, he'll just  kill  you.    

2.   If you find  yourself in a fair fight, your tactics  suck.    

3.   I carry  a gun 'cause a cop is too heavy.  (Gotta love this   one!!)

4.   When seconds count, the cops are just  minutes away.  (Yep, time is some time, but  shoot  first, then call 911)

5.   A reporter did a human interest piece on the Texas Rangers.  The reporter  recognize  the Colt Model 1911 the Ranger was as carrying and  asked him "Why do carry a  .45?".  The Ranger responded with, "Because they don't make a .46."

6.   An  armed man will kill an unarmed man with monotonous   regularity.

7.   The old sheriff was attending an  awards dinner when a lady commented on his wearing his  sidearm. "Sheriff, I see you have  your pistol.  Are you  expecting trouble?"  "NO Ma'am.  If I were  expecting trouble, I would have brought my rifle."  (Winchester Model 94  30-30 Cal. and loaded with   Winchester Silver Tips, no doubt).

8.    Beware the man who only has one gun.  HE PROBABLY KNOWS HOW TO  USE IT!!!

To  this I will add my comments.   I was once asked by a lady visiting if I had  a gun in the  house.  To which I said I did.  She said "well I  certainly hope it isn't loaded!"  To which I said, "of course  it is  loaded, can't  work without bullets." She then  asked, "Are you that afraid of someone evil coming into your house?"  My reply  was,"No not at all. I am not  afraid of the house catching afire either, but I have fire  extinguishers around, and THEY ARE ALL  LOADED."
