Self Defense Quiz...<br> Question: You're walking down a deserted street with your wife<br> and two small children. Suddenly, a dangerous looking man with<br> a huge knife comes around the corner and is running at you while<br> screaming obscenities. In your hand is a Glock .40 and you are<br> an expert shot. You have mere seconds before he reaches you<br> and your family. What do you do?<br> __________________________________________________ ________________<br><br> Liberal Answer:<br> Well, that's not enough information to answer the question!<br> Does the man look poor or oppressed? Have I ever done<br> anything to him that is inspiring him to attack? Am I merely<br> &quot;profiling&quot; him by assuming that he looks dangerous, just<br> because he's running at me with a knife and cursing?<br> Could we run away?<br> What does my wife think?<br> What about the kids?<br> Could I possibly swing the gun like a club and knock the<br> knife out of his hand?<br> What does the law say about this situation?<br> Is it possible he'd be happy with just killing me?<br> Does he definitely want to kill me or would he just be<br> content to wound me?<br> If I were to grab his knees and hold on, could my family<br> get away while he was stabbing me?<br> This is all so confusing! I need to debate this with some<br> friends for a few days to try to come to a conclusion.<br> __________________________________________________ __________<br> Conservative Answer:<br><br> BANG!<br> __________________________________________________ __________<br><br> Texan's Answer:<br><br> BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!<br> BANG! BANG! BANG! click...<br> (sounds of clip being ejected and fresh clip installed)<br> Wife: &quot;Sweetheart, he looks like he's still moving, what<br> do you kids think?&quot;<br> Son: &quot;Mom's right Dad, I saw it too...&quot;<br> BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!<br> BANG! BANG! BANG!<br> Daughter: &quot;Nice grouping Daddy!&quot;<br><br>

<br><br> People are always harping on the Gun issue and how much safer we would be without them :<br><br> In Israel the crime rate for burglary and home invasion is practically nil, the cause is because Everyone is part of the Home Defense unit.<br><br> Every able bodied male Israeli must serve a certain amount of time in their military and they all have Uzi's in the home.<br><br> Not too many burglars want to jimmy open a window knowing the chance is extremely high he will be crawling into the field of fire from an automatic weapon.<br><br> This trend also affects other types of crimes in equal fashion. Admittedly they do have the terrorist issue there, as do we more and more everyday right here. But that is a separate issue from everyday crimes committed.<br><br> Solution: Do I think we should issue automatic weapons to everybody?.....No. But the discipline and training these people all gain by serving there country, obviously leads to a society better prepared to defend itself from wanton criminals, and couple that with citizens legally armed and trained in the proper use of those weapons, with violators of gun laws severely punished, would in my mind make the USA a much safer place to live.<br><br> Time to Rid this country of those who would exploit it and us illegally, and give it back to those hard working Americans who build this great Nation every single time they punch the time clock at work.<br><br>Shoves soapbox back in the corner

A career politician is our worst enemy, he is in it for the money and power only. Our Forefathers envisioned everyday common people, with good common sense filling the ranks of law makers and Judges.<br><br> In this manner every few years the whole legislative branch would be swept clean of the corruption that inevitably breeds there and replaced with people who actually give a dang about us.<br><br> Not a perfect system, but if done correctly you get a couple of good years out of them before the greed and corruption takes over.<br><br> Career Politicians and Lobbyist are an abomination on a free Republic.<br><br> My apologies for turning this into a political discussion, you may now return to your regularly scheduled programing ;D<br><br>
