What do you tell a good friend?

Muscles...
Maybe she lives in a State that doesn't honor the 2nd Amendment, so one has to take exams and jump hoops in order to get a license to even handle a gun much less own one, and maybe she has a pinhead husband who doesn't think women should even think about guns.

you said it yourself - your life, your choice. I also agree with what everyone else posted. I've got a nice S&W .38 spl bodyguard w/hogue grips that I'd be willing to give you at a sweet price (Oleg V. traded it to me so it'd be like a family thing...). Just let me know.

It's sounds like the Ceasefire.org tv commercials have brainwashed your ignorant friend.

"Gun Control Only Protects Those in Power"
 
Miss D,
I have a similar problem except with my wife's father. He is SUPER LIBERAL. He believes the government should issue only muskets to the people and outlaw the rest. Of course I posed the question of issuing the old bulky printing presses and confiscating computers with MS Word, or any other form of mass communications. He said: "I believe that you're taking it a bit far". Wanna talk about IRATE? I was fuming, but had to pretend to be nice. My wife was kissing me on the cheek, and whispering nice things in my ear, because she knew where I was about to go. It isn't the ignorance that I object to, it is the condescending attitude that burns my ---. I get emotionally involved sometimes, and can nolonger make a inteligible statement, so I just shut-up and fume which gives the appearance of losing the arguement. About the only other thing I said that night was that after his statements of how well gun control works in Japan, and Korea, I mentioned how well it also worked in Russia, Cambodia, Uganda, Nazi Germany, and in Chiappa's Mexico. He had no reply to it.
The only bright thought I have is that it must really burn his --- that all three of his daughters have become staunch conservatives, and one (my wife) has even joined the Libertarian Party!!!! :D For a Liberal, that must keep him awake at nights!
 
Miss D,
You showed more patience than I could ever in that situation. You can't argue with somebody who doesn't listen. It's like talking to a wall.
 
You're doing a good job, KJM. Next time ask him if he believes that the cultural differences between Japan and the U.S. aren't the biggest factor in the crime rates:

--Japan--No opposing racial or ethnic groups. No racial crime.
--Japan--Increasing but still very little dissolution of the traditional family unit, which there means the elderly family members as well. Thus less of the adolescent rage against older people that fuels some street gangs and things like Columbine.
 
It isn't the ignorance that I object to, it is the condescending attitude that burns my ---.

Doesn't that pretty much SUM UP the liberal mind? (Ignorance and concescension)
 
The backroads and wooded areas of this country are littered with the remains of women who took the same advice.
 
Good for you! If it comes up again you
might tell him that it is a MORAL duty
to defend one's self and others. In my opinion it's the cowards way out by running
out the back door (some states require retreat :mad: ).
I'm wondering; does he think that calling 911 will save him? Does he think that just because the police are paid by our tax dollars that they are bound to rescue him?
They are under NO legal obligation to protect
any individual. But, they do so anyway, thank
God for that. He needs to realize that personal protection is up to the individual
not the public sector.
Take care,
Bob Farrar
