In the wee hours of Friday morning, April 19th, I evolved on guns.
********************************
I’m shopping for guns this week. I’ve been told a 12-gauge shotgun is a good choice for home protection, but I’m open to suggestions.

Nothing like having your nose forceably rubbed in the fact that the individual really is the person ultimately responsible for their own safety. Add a bit of responsibility for children or others who cannot defend themselves effectively and suddenly its a wake-up call.
And then there's Ms. Feinstein and everyone like her who advocates citizen disarmament. Here's an interesting read sent to me by a friend: http://www.survivalblog.com/2013/04/...y-jason-h.html. Thought provoking? Makes me wonder how long it'll be before Paula Bolyard is demonized as "reactionary" by the "opinion shapers".

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.
~ Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C)
