Evidently, the post that I thought I made yesterday didn't make it through, so here goes.
Mannlicher,
I got , from your posts, that you feel that you don't need weapon retention skills and that you will "pull your other gun" to solve the problem.
My point was that carrying a second gun isn't a suitable arguement for not training in weapon retention, but actually requires more training because you are introducing another weapon into a dynamic situation.
As for the "malice aforethought" line, (grammar never was my specialty
) it was an attempt at "social commentarty. Perhaps I should have put the phrase in quotation marks. An unfortunately number of people in our society believe that the only reason to carry a gun is because you want to kill someone. Is that nonsense? Of course.
I was more concerned with the rest of the repeated phrase, namely that "knowingly and willingly, ... bringing a gun into "polite society", you are responsible for that gun." And "knowingly and willingly, ...bring two guns into "polite society" you are responsible for both of them.
