Compensating

Open Thread


 I'm preparing to install a new OS - as soon as it arrives in the mail - and am spending a lot of time cleaning house, backing up, etc.  While I wait for stuff to transfer and percolate, I'll post stuff.  In the meanwhile say whatever you want here except remember my little kids read this if you're referring to people like Hillary or Pelosi.

Is that an AK-47? ;-)

"The old saying goes that God made men, but Sam Colt made them equal. Col. Samuel Colt's revolver continues to serve as an equalizer. Being bigger, tougher and meaner than the next guy may not mean jack spit if the next guy carries a .357 in his waistband.

Bad attitude and big muscles make a poor match for a 200-grain lead slug...."

'Course not. It's an M-16. You can drive an AK-47.

I carry to compensate for the fact that I'm not immortal.

I own guns (picked up another today) because as a Man, qua Man, I have the inherent right to defend myself from other people or animals.

Liberals don't think such a right exists because they don't believe in the individual only groups, society etc.

Why I carry a gun
From Lee Martin’s http://single-actions.phpbb3now.com/index.php
I carry a gun. 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 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 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. I carry a gun because I’m too young to die and too old to take a beating. Anon.

Is that an Oleg Volk picture? -1911Man

Rodger the Real King of France said...

I don't know who Oleg Volk is. I've had it 4 awhile but it was copied so many times that I had to redo the text, and refurbish the picture. This morning I took the time.

Roger,

Oleg Volk is a photographer, and human rights activist (of the REAl kind). You can check out some of his work here:
