re: #228 Walter L. Newton

I have a honest question, for all. How many of you have had a real gun pulled on you? By someone who for all intensive purposes, would have used it?

How many of you have been mugged… in real bar fights where knives and/or guns have been pulled?

How many of you have been part of a major disaster, a tornado that tore half of your neighborhood apart, or a hurricane or earthquake, some situation where you actually had to live without services for a week or two.

Just wondering.

I was caught between two gangbangers when I was getting into my car to go to work. The punk’s gun jammed.

I walked in on a burglar once. Don’t know if he had a gun, but I did. He was caught by police.

I was stalked by a crazy man for over a year - that’s when I decided to get a gun.

Lived near the epicenter of two major earthquakes in 1971 and 1994. Don’t know what that has to do with the gun question.

Why are you wondering, I wonder?
