More recently, I've been carrying a Jenny Wren (small, very lethal) as well.LLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05538854359365988863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2031819490572301756.post-82097025460859114632013-08-31T15:11:38.287-05:002013-08-31T15:11:38.287-05:00Larry - no worries about the length of the post - ...Larry - no worries about the length of the post - MORE info is always better than less. I am continually fascinated (an typically a little pissed) that I am supposed to go unprotected so THEY - the progressive - feel better. <br /><br />Also, just curious what tomahawk you carry? Sounds like a good addition to an Go Bag.eiaftinfohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13595068743383767561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2031819490572301756.post-11065991960343598392013-08-31T12:25:01.929-05:002013-08-31T12:25:01.929-05:00I use the Grizzly Bear philosophy. If I'm in a...I use the Grizzly Bear philosophy. If I'm in a situation where a Grizzly (substitute wolf or tiger) is coming after me, they don't care who I am. They are no respecter of persons -- but they will die and make a fine rug. Which is why it's stupid not to be armed and prepared all of the time. Quite frankly, humans are more effective apex predators than Grizzly Bears and are more dangerous, and one must respect his potential attackers and prepare.<br /><br />Better to have and not need than need and not have. <br /><br />(War story alert) When I was a young man going through a background investigation one question was "have you violated any laws" - or something to that effect. I answered, "yes" -- then the form asked me which laws I violated. I wrote that irrespective of existing statutes, I carried a handgun almost continually since I was 15 years old. The polygrapher asked me whether nor not I was armed at the time of the test. I said that I had a Browning High Power. He laughed (being a wise old man) and said, "Well then, let's get on with the test". Oddly enough, I passed the background, but that was then and this is now. <br /><br />Progressives don't understand that there is a difference between having prepared defensive measures, training with those measures and USING them. It's like having keys to a car. You never have to drive it unless you need to.<br /><br />Today most countries don't want me to carry a firearm -- so I carry a small, lethal tomahawk because even in Russia, where a fixed blade knife is illegal (beyond about 3" blade), an axe is perfectly legal. That's true worldwide. Canadians bristle at the thought of allowing an American in with a handgun, but they're more than happy to let me in with a tomahawk. It's not just about having a firearm. It's about "defensive measures". (sorry for the long post)LLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05538854359365988863noreply@blogger.com
