Why do I carry a gun?

So I’ve been asked this same question at least a hundred times in the last 2 or 3 months… I normally respond with “Why don’t you?” or “Because a whole cop would be too damn heavy!” People usually think I’m kidding but it’s far from a joke. I don’t think I’m a vigilante or some superhero. I just want to be able to protect myself, my loved ones, my friends, or even a stranger in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Why wouldn’t EVERYBODY want that option? The old saying goes “when seconds count, the police are only minutes away”.

What would you do if you witnessed someone being assaulted, brutalized, or even worse?

Hurry! Dial 911……now what?  Watch someone die? Become a target yourself?

The only question that should be asked is

Why don’t you carry a gun???
