Never Give Up! Keep on fighting the good fight!

[virginia mountainman]

As frustrating as it can get, keep it up....People are still coming to our side on this issue!

....Prior to this day I had never held a gun and didn't know anyone who owned a gun. Afterward, I didn't want to see, hold, or touch a gun, and I supported gun control laws with the hope that something like this crime would never happen again.....

Than reality sits in....

I talked to many men and women this week for a carry-conceal story and learned why it's important to have this right to carry a firearm.

And, as I read and watch news stories of crime and violence I recognize the randomness of life and death. Sometimes not within our control, and sometimes, in our control.

I believe that self-education never ends. Regardless of the circumstances of birth, gender, race, class, religion, we need to keep learning what we need to know and decide about our own future. I am taking the concealed-carry class because I want to know how to protect myself.

Nice read!

3. "Freedom needs our support." Sounds hokey when applied to guns in a modern society.

4. Only to people who don't believe that self-defense is necessary or desirable in a modern society.

"Freedom needs our support." Sounds hokey when applied to guns in a modern society.

Only to people who don't believe that self-defense is necessary, achievable, or desirable in a modern society.

2. "Continuing education is the only way to move out of our self-imposed comfort zones."

Best quote from the article.

I'm guessing that most pro-gun control people will never do either; continue to obtain education OR move outside of their self-imposed comfort zones.

5. Good find. Even more than guns as a means of self-defense...

is the discovery of self-defense in itself. A lesson here for those Democrats who have somehow forgotten or are hostile to the natural rights foundation of our democracy and its Constitution. And primary within natural rights is the right to self-defense.
