A friend from England was discussing America's gun laws and how they might not work in the UK, "Think downtown Romford on a Saturday night, throw guns into the mix and Boom! They'd all be dead, innit."
Piers Morgan Being Appalling Somewhere in England |
Even the most ardent firearms enthusiast might have to concede a point, though I bravely countered with "being able to defend yourself is a hallmark of a free society." Picture the scene, you're strolling down a street in Soho looking for fun and up saunters Piers Morgan, all raced up from Champagne and Gin at the Groucho. So Whaddya do? Call the police?

That's a negative, by the time London's Finest arrive it's too late. No. You pull out a Glock like a free man and shoot it dead, but you can't do that in England, which brings us back to America.
It Works |
In this country you can defend yourself and I'd argue that qualified persons should carry in order to defend the unarmed citizenry against bad actors, like Piers Morgan and Lena Dunham. My friend agreed, "It's like a duty."
Safe Space |
With that in mind, my carry weapon's a Glock 21. I know, I know, it's not a .357 Magnum or an awesome Kimber, but whatever, the Glock's all business and gets the job done. What's the job?
Creating a safe space, obviously.

Blue Pooch looks so sweet. Nice holster.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Adrienne. I like Alien Gear and Blue Defender was very at peace in the safe space...
DeletePiers Morgan? Oi, lads, kick 'is 'ead in! #EssexBoys
ReplyDeleteImagine having to shoot Piers though. #Fantasy
Jules, I know. "Piers" needs cruel and unusual punishment. Then again, just it dead.
DeleteBlue Imperial looks very safe in the photo. But he also looks safe when his fangs are bared at the mail man.
ReplyDeleteBlue Kipling was pretty content, LL. Of course he's looking forward to the titanium fang implants.
DeleteIn Safe Space no one can hear you scream!
ReplyDeleteAnonymous, I may have to quote you...
DeleteMy Glock mod 30 in a Blackhawk Serpa rig also looks very comfortable; kinda relaxed and meditative. Nice pooch BTW.
ReplyDeleteSig, I like my Serpa rig too -- great bit of kit and, with you, pleasantly calming.
DeleteWill pass on regards to the Blue dog.
I think what matters most is that you hit the target with what you carry. Not like some cop shootouts where they fire an untold number of rounds, and the target escapes.
ReplyDeleteStill a good discussion is its own satisfaction.
Be safe, all. God bless.
Totally agree, Linda. Well said.

DeleteJules - "having" to shoot Piers Morgan? I think you mean "getting".
ReplyDeleteGood point!
