the last sentence was sarcasm, but that first part of yours didn't sound much like it.

Defensive use, yes... Offensive use, on the streets? NO.

The young folks with a gangsta attitude and a gun are the problem. Break into my house while I'm not there, see if my wife 'talks' to you before she puts lead in your chest. But, also know, she doesn't carry a handgun around waiting for someone to piss her off.... If that was the case, I would have been dead a long time ago

The devastation and pain that it causes to the family of the one killed can not be expressed in words.

Sorry! Rant done!
This is exactly what I say. People with guns are punks and wimps.

Now this thread is getting out of hand.

What you just said is ignorant because you basically just accused half the forum of being punk whimps. Including Lawman and military folks. As well as those of us licensed to pack heat.

Dude deserved that big time! I hate to say it but hes lucky the skateboarder didnt shoot his punk azz and get set free for self defense! Hope after getting his azz whooped he got sent to the big house so his new cellie bubba can spank his azz like that teenage skateboarder did! Im not saying violonce is ok but the skateboarder didnt do anything in the wrong at all! Except stopping his attack to soon!

Now that is just a stupid statement.Punks and wimps with guns are just that,punks and wimps with guns.I have a CHL and carry one with me everyday.Nobody except my close friends and family know i have it.When people in public piss me off,i dont even think about the fact that i have it.In fact,I end up being the bigger person and shrugging it off because i know i have it.But the fact of the matter is,if that punk pulled that crap either to me or to someone near me(especially to a friend or family member,but not limited to),they would be calling the meat wagon to come pick him up.My gun does not come out because im angry,or want to look tought,it comes out to stop people from hurting other people.

I wouldn't say people with guns and knives are wimps. i WOULD say that people who use a gun when it's not necessary, trying to act tough are wimps. if someone needs to pull a gun to try and intimidate someone for no reason...then yes, they are a wimp. people who use guns for regulated, safe shooting on a closed range and people who have them for self-defense are perfectly fine in my book.

in both videos, I'm totally for the guy(s) defending himself/themselves. Unfortunately, we get dispatched to an "assault / injury / just occurred" or "assault / in progress" and we get there, the guy(s) who actually started the fight is the one calling the police saying "these guys just jumped me. I dunno why. I was just walking along the beach and they came up to me and started trying to pick a fight with me..."

shit's funny as hell.
