This month, I was going to write about pocket pistols, but I got totally distracted looking for a quote I needed. While looking for it, I stumbled into an online-forum discussion that had a couple quotes that caused me to completely change my subject. A fellow forum member, who worked in a gun store, related the tale of a police officer acquaintance of his who was shopping for a shotgun so as to have something to “keep in the garage so he’d have a gun nearby while he was mowing the lawn.” When the forum member asked him why he didn’t just carry a gun while doing yard work, the officer looked at him like he was crazy.

Normally it's anti-gun BS when somebody says "why have a gun, the thugs will use it against you".
But if you're on the lawn mower and a shotgun is in the open garage, what's to stop them from grabbing it and attacking you with it? |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
