I especially like the #1 rule (below). But then again,
always have your weapon ready...just in case.

To all you old law dogs now just lyin' in the shade, current pistoleros and
other fervent Second Amendment believers: I would rather be your friend, but if you are not interested in
that, I am prepared to be a capable and efficient enemy.
This is the law: The purpose of fighting is to win. There is no
possible victory in defense. The
sword is more important than the shield and skill is more important than
either. The final weapon is the
brain. All else is supplemental. As John Steinbeck once said :
1. Don't pick a fight with an old
man. If he is too old to fight, he'll just kill you.
2. If you find yourself in a fair
fight, your tactics suck.
3. I carry a gun cause a cop is
too heavy.
4.
5. When seconds count, the cops
are just minutes away. (but shoot first anyway, then call 911)
6. A reporter did a human interest
piece on the Texas Rangers. The reporter recognized the Colt Model 1911
the Ranger was carrying and asked him 'Why do you carry a 45?'. The
Ranger responded with, 'Because they don't make a .46.'
7. An armed man will kill an
unarmed man with monotonous regularity.
8. The old sheriff was attending
an awards dinner when a lady commented on his wearing his sidearm.
'Sheriff, I see you have your pistol. Are you expecting trouble?'
'NO Ma'am. If I were expecting trouble, I would have brought my rifle.'
(Winchester Model 94 30-30
9. Beware the man who only has
one gun. HE PROBABLY KNOWS HOW TO USE IT!!!
AMEN!
To this I will add my
comments. I was once asked by a lady visiting if I had a gun in the
house. To which I said I did. She said 'well I certainly hope it
isn't loaded!' To which I said, 'of course it is loaded.' She then asked,
'Are you that afraid of some one evil coming into your house?' My reply was,'No
not at all. I am not afraid of the house catching afire either, but
I have fire extinguishers around, and THEY ARE ALL LOADED.'
