People, thugs are willing to die to get your things, to take your life, to assault your family and friends the majority of these attempts can be prevented by being a trained, law abiding, gun owner. Legally armed, trained citizens have an edge on most thugs. Very few of them know how to properly use, aim and fire the weapon they have. Most have had no range time. Be careful, be aware, be armed.
Amen Frankie, Amen. I feel sorry for any poor miscreant that may happen to find his way into my home or truck, they will certainly be DRT! Keep up the good work people!

‘”Especially an older person, you can’t fight,” Collins, 31, said, of why it makes sense that shots were fired.’
That’s right. Old guys aren’t going to grapple with an assailant if they can avoid it; rather, they’re simply going defend themselves from a distance by employing their weapon(s) to good effect.
Oops.
‘…going TO defend…’
