A typical Concealed carry story...why people carry guns for protection...

[2aguy]

This story is one of the reasons why self defense with guns are so underreported.....many times crimes don't happen....because the victim was armed....so when they get the call in a crime study and are asked..."Were you ever a victim of a crime..." Too often the response is no......because the gun kept the attack from going forward, hence, no crime was comitted, but a gun was still used.....but won't be counted.....

Here is a typical example.....

This Is One Reason Why I Carry - The Truth About Guns

Like most first time concealed carriers, I was still getting used to the idea of having a piece of metal strapped to my hip. At the time I was rocking a M&P compact with 180 grain HST. I still wasn’t quite used to the idea of having a gun on me, and I felt like a pariah in civilized society. Of course, every day without fail, I would put my gun faithfully following the rules of Ayoob Massad to carry all the time. Of course I began to think I was paranoid, but one day changed all that . . .

I adjusted my stance so I would be able to reach my weapon quickly and deliver two shots to his chest if he attacked me or drew a gun. I never stopped looking at him. In those few moments you could hear the gears turning in his head. Then there was that moment in his eyes where he realized he was about to make an acute failure in the victim selection process.

My 6’5 tall, 300 lb. problem looked at me a few seconds more, then turned around and walked back out the alley. I could feel my heart racing and it became quite clear at that moment why I carry a gun. For you race baiters out there, yes he was black. And guess what…I’m black too. It didn’t make a difference to him, there was no “brotherly love”. My being black didn’t magically exempt me or prevent him from him wanting to makee victims of my fiancé and me.

This man had evil in his heart and he was ready to hurt us. So for all you noobs out there in the gun world who keep hearing “there is no need for a gun” or “you are just paranoid,” The people who say that live in a la-la land world of make believe. They have no clue how fast things can go bad, or just don’t care.

Notice.......no gun was shown, no gun was pulled from the holster, no shots were fired, no one was injured or killed.....this gun owner did not go nuts and just start shooting...........and he stopped a crime before it happened......

A typical use of a gun....which happens 1.6 million times a year on average.......

You can give all the stories you want, it does not matter. I have been in deadly situations armed and unarmed. I have been lucky, each and every time.

But if you think you have some right to deprive me of a basic human tool, you can go poop in your hat.

Of course guns deter crime. This was a well known fact by all Americans decades ago...but with the perversion of leftism, many are ignorant of it.

You generalize with terms like leftism, and your avatar shows that you hate democracy.

No generalization here...leftism is a clearly defined term..it is not a generalization.

How can you confuse democracy with socialism? They are entirely different things.

So this really happened....because you want to believe it happened. It looks like the kind of fiction that Mickey Spillane used to crank out.

Do guns prevent crime or is this fiction?

Socialism is the most pure form of democracy. The will of the people. Majority rule. For the benefit of all over one.

That may be the Utopian view of socialism...in practice, it never works that way and never will.

and majority rule seldom benefits all.

So then you don't believe in democracy.

Okay....a pure democracy is majority rule...and as I stated, seldom does it benefit all.

Why would you think majority rule benefits all?

Well if the majority of people want something, they get it. I didn't say anything about it being "good" for them or not. But the fact remains that democracy is socialism.

You stated above majority rule for the benefit of all over the one.
The problem is socialism never works in practice since it depends on man.

You have no right to judge what is good or not in a majority rule democracy. That is the decision of the collective. by vote.
