    Everyone is born with equal rights in the constitution. Unfortunately the right to bear arms, 2-A .. is one of the biggest hot topics next to Chy-Na virus . Yes I made some dumb choices as a kid and I don’t think it’s right that right was stripped from me when I see some YouTube Rambo waving his Pecker around and blowing everything up around him because “it’s HIS right to not be infringed” .... that’s besides the point. Law markers would love nothing more than to strip every single gun out of everyone’s hands , far as they are concerned a Felon is one less legal gun owner they have to deal with if they ever get their way...

    for the ones that do legally own a firearm . Just because you have it and know how to use it you better make sure all your I’s and T’s are crossed if you have to use it . I’ve seen too many cases where the person in the right protecting their life is now in a world of stinky #2 ... even worse if you’re in a state like Illinois or some other state that absolutely hates guns.


    Their was just a stabbing in Strawberry plains TN where some Muslim stabbed and killed 3 people and yet you didn’t hear anything about it anymore after a few days. You can bet if it was a firearm it would of been blasted world wide for weeks , more rally’s for more gun control and so on.... yes I have a better chance with a firearm , I have less of a chance landing in hot water with something sharp and silent

    There's a reason the local sheriff will usually say if you shoot a home intruder don't stop pulling the trigger till they stop moving, and yes I've had one tell me that.

    I actually heard very similar. Make sure only one of you can tell their side of the story . You could be sharing a jail cell together. I know a gun will always beat a knife that didn’t even need to be said. BUT I can buy as many as I want , no registration , no government knocking on my door telling me to hand them over if they do get their way...

    I would LOVE to legally own a firearm or 100 of them . But that’s not gonna happen in this lifetime anymore . Anyone gets a presidential pardon better by a lottery ticket while they are at it

    I would still have one in my house, can always say the intruder walked in with it.
    You look overseas, I wouldn't be too sure about always being able to have a knife either.

    Knife or gun, you have to comply with state, county, city regulations everywhere you go or risk getting punished. TN allows you to open carry a sword. I'm pretty sure the Communist states judge anything larger than a toothpick as a deadly weapon.

    I read that an attacker with a knife will stab a concealed firearm carrier if he is less than 20’ away. I called BS, and I asked my wife if she’d be the attacker with a knife (butter knife) for the experiment. I did the “ready, set” but she didn’t wait for “go.” She was on me like white on rice while I was still struggling to get to my pistol. I protested that it wasn’t fair, and she just laughed and laughed.

    I’ve got such a cute wife. :):)
