I got this email today and thought the whole thing made a lot of sense!! I agree with every one of these!

WHY I CARRY A GUN

My old grandpa said to me, "Son, there comes a time in every man's life when he stops bustin' knuckles and starts bustin' caps and usually it's when he becomes too old to take a whoopin'."
 
I don't carry a gun to kill people.  I carry a gun to keep from being killed.
 
I don't carry a gun to scare people.  I carry a gun because sometimes this world can be a scary place.
 
I don't carry a gun because I'm paranoid.  I carry a gun because there are real threats in the world.
 
I don't carry a gun because I'm evil.  I carry a gun because I have lived long enough to see the evil in the world.
 
I don't carry a gun because I hate the government.  I carry a gun because I understand the limitations of government.
 
I don't carry a gun because I'm angry.  I carry a gun so that I don't have to spend the rest of my life hating myself for failing to be prepared.
 
I don't carry a gun because I want to shoot someone.  I carry a gun because I want to die at a ripe old age in my bed, and not on a sidewalk somewhere tomorrow afternoon.
 
I don't carry a gun because I'm a cowboy.  I carry a gun because, when I die and go to Heaven, I want to be a cowboy.
 
I don't carry a gun to make me feel like a man.  I carry a gun because men know how to take care of themselves and the ones they love.
 
I don't carry a gun because I feel inadequate.  I carry a gun because unarmed and facing three armed thugs, I am inadequate.
 
I don't carry a gun because I love it.  I carry a gun because I love life and the people who make it meaningful to me.
 
"Police Protection" is an oxymoron.  Free citizens must protect themselves.  Police do not protect you from crime; they usually just investigate the crime after it happens and then call someone in to clean up the mess.
 
Personally, I carry a gun because I'm too young to die and too old to take a whoopin'.

I carry a gun, because cops are too big and fat to carry around in my back pocket.

Besides, they like Krispy Kream Donuts and will get my pockets all sticky.

 

Personally I carry a gun, because when seconds count 911 brings cops that are minuts away.
