Thanks again, Gun Bunny.
When you disarm your subjects, you offend them by showing that either from cowardliness or lack of faith, you distrust them; and either conclusion will induce them to hate you.

Bringing a “burglary tool” to a gunfight.
(no mention of what the “burglary tool” is. a lock pick? a pry bar? an e tool? )
That deserves its own page in the 3″ three ring (etc) book of T2NB2AGF.
Congratulations Mr Maybank, you have just achieved TAH immortality. And you’re still alive to read about it.
It was a very sturdy credit card!!
The “juvie” will be back at choir practice by the time Sunday morning Services are starting. Because we just know that he is a gud boi, having found Jesus, and was turning his life around. Only reason he and his misguided mentor were looking for a car is that they needed a ride to choir practice.
Thought you’d like the “burglary tool” to a gunfight. Having your very own page in the T2NB2AGF is a high honor, indeed!
The only reason despots want to disarm their “subjects” is they are planning on doing things that would cause the “subjects” to want to shoot them. Be a Citizen…not a “subject”.
Old slo joe, the grifter musta wrote the contract to sell those surplus revolvers for those prices. joe was offered overall command of the union forces but turned it down because he couldn’t bring the baby sitter with him to the field.
Items like a long flat head screwdriver or pry bar and channel lock pliers. The pliers to force a door knob to turn breaking the internal lock. Pry bar for obvious reasons. Normally only an issue when found wandering a neighborhood late at night in an area that has had recent burglaries, car theft or car entries.
