The key part was "if I wanted to", which I don't want to ever have to do.

That was just one example of how I could do it with something improvised. Would you like me to provide more example possibilities? I ain't a cuck. If I'm armed you'll know it.

I can go pretty much anywhere without fear because anything and everthing within my reach is a weapon. I could probably kill someone with a broken plastic spoon in an emergency and here's how I'd do it: shove it through one of their eyes. When I'm carrying a loaded firearm I'm not potential...

I've never been in a situation where "I need a gun for self-defense right now" has ever come close to being a thought. Not even when visiting my brother-in-laws relatives in East Saint Louis. As I said, you aren't thinking like a civilian. You're thinking military where anything just the...
