When I took the NRA PP class way back when there was some lengthy discussion about criminal psychology. Basically the rank and file criminal is a coward and opportunist looking for the easy 'meal'. In their view if you look or might be dangerous youll most likely be passed over for something easier. It becomes a much more dangerous game b/c they dont know who is/isnt armed. :D


Yep...good point!
I'm upper middle aged (or younger old age) at 57. I've got a bad arm and limp from a stroke several years ago...so I'd be one of those "Targets of Opportunity" to a thug.
Well, the .38 is in my pocket on my good side...or, there's a 9 mm on the same side.

Hi Roy,
Ive met some pretty scrappy folk whose appendages didn't all work well. I think much of it, from the criminals POV, is how you carry yourself. Even someone who limps can exude a 'don't mess w/ me b/c Ill hurt you' message.

For the most part, I'm one of those guys who exude "don't mess with me". Trouble is, after a long day on my feet or up and about...I don't exude as well.

I think that I did at one time have an old rusty 22 or shotgun lying around but sold those at a yard sale. Any firearms sold to me with a completed 4473 were either stolen or lost at an unknown date. I like to think that to protect one's constitutional right to own & bare firearms in this age of Democratic Secular Progressive Liberalism, litigious civil litigation, hate crime legislation, forced Cultural Diversity, PC thought and speech, my stated firearm ownership is the same as discussing my personal religion, or political beliefs and that is best kept to myself. If I did own firearms, I would keep that knowledge to myself. However, that said I do defend others rights to state their gun ownership


Stated public ownership of the evil firearm in this age invites the possible future seizure of said items or mandatory incarceration. Hopefully, this will not happen in my lifetime but I can sadly foresee the day when America will go the way of South Africa and Rhodesia.

With our soon to be Democrat 20 Million Plus Illegal (Guest Workers) Citizens (for a fee) Voting in the O'Bamas, the Clinton's, the Kennedy's, Pelosi's, Boxer's et al the WASP American Gun Owner will become the dinosaur of the land.

In the mean time, I send my money to the NRA, GOA, Vote and hope that the politicians that I voted for will keep their word as far as protecting the rights of the American Gun Owner.

Our declining birth rate, planned destruction of the middle class, mass infusion of illegals coupled with the social engineering of our politicians have begun the decline of American Civilization as we know and love it.

I pray and hope that I am wrong but we are headed (sliding) down the slope of history into a Civilization in Decline. Moral values, Ethical Standards, PC Thought, Forced Cultural Diversity, Acceptance of Violence, Cradle to Grave Government Regulations have decimated the America that I once knew.

I sincerely hope that I have miscalculated and that the American Voter will come to their senses and Vote in Term Limits, Oust the Career Politicians, Insist upon Deportation of Criminal Illegals, Secure the Borders, Stop our dependence of foreign oil, make English the official American Language and stop the drain of our monies (taxed) to oversees cesspools where the corrupt politicians only become wealthier and oppress and slaughter their people.

My friends, Si vis pacem para bellum, dum America deliberat Saguntum perit, vivat crescat floreat , dum spiro spero :rolleyes:

I have no idea what that Latin(?) phrase means, but have a feeling I'd like it.

Come to think of it, I can't find any of my guns either. Wonder what happened to them?
