Elementary school shooting gun control pissing contest

[PDH]

I used to take off my shoulder holster and hang it on the coat rack when I got home from work.    First thing to come off at the end of the day, last thing to put on going out the door in the morning.

Did you shake your head wearily & mumble "I'm gettin' too old for this shit" when you did it?

He did, all the while knowing he had to break in an eager rookie and try to solve that murder, all in his last two weeks before retirement.

But he's still alive. Shouldn't he have been shot down on his last day, gasping out some last inspiring words to the rookie that made all the difference?

One of these days, somebody's going to walk across the street, and bludgeon one of them with a Louisville Slugger.

Unfortunately, they are all immune to being beaten senseless.

  Throw darts at the dartboard before setting the metronome at bedtime.

If only I had a Bernice at home.

I think it was a knife, not darts, IIRC.

Don't act all confused.

It's not an act.  I'm still trying to figure out what Susan Rice has to do with this.

Don't be coy.  I saw you get all defensive about the gun issue, I just reminded you of your glorious victory over the monster Susan Rice.

Okay.  Odd though that it seems like you are now more fixated on her than I ever was.

I doubt that.  I'm not interested in her.  I was interested in your rage against this woman which you couldn't really explain to us.

Let it go, Raz.

The most fanciful situation out there is a home invasion where they bust down the doors. That's the most pressing need for a gun, but in reality unless you have a loaded gun in every room in your house, there is no guarantee at all you'll be able to get to one in such a situation. And if you have a loaded gun in every room in your house, that is all the more dangerous to children.

So even when I kept a revolver in my night stand I think in such a situation, the reality is a home invasion would have to be met with physical force of the hand to hand type unless I was lucky enough to be in my bedroom when it started. Other situations, like someone prowling around the property, setting off the alarm or etc trying to steal--that presents more than enough time for me to get to one of my locked guns.

I used to take off my shoulder holster and hang it on the coat rack when I got home from work.    First thing to come off at the end of the day, last thing to put on going out the door in the morning.

Now, I don't even bother keeping anything around for protection at the ready anymore; I've been out of bail bonds for so long, I doubt anybody still remembers if they want to kill me or not, and mainly because nobody in this town's going to climb three flights of stairs to whack me.  They can wait for me down by the car.

I do keep my handguns in combo lock cases now, because of the cleaning ladies;  still quick enough to get to for the rare pounding at the door at 2am--but that's usually because the Dazzling Urbanites come home drunk as shit, and forget they live downstairs.

Good, sensible, thought out stuff.

Susan Rice was the dutiful lackey that she was to protect the Prez.

I also had my semi-auto test-fired by a buddy at the county police years ago to get the ballistics results on file, in the event it was somehow lost or stolen, and used in a crime for tracing purposes.  My revolver was already on file, since it had be stolen once and recovered.  Used to keep the make, model and manufacturer numbers on a laminated card in my wallet in the event they disappeared.

The P38 is not on file, however.   One never knows... 

[Razgovory]

Let it go, Raz.

I will when you and Derspeiss let your Obama thing go.
