Sorry. After about 120 "legal defensive pistol" phrases, my eyes glazed over. Obvious use of highly specific, unusual language doesn't help; it only pegs the writer as an eccentric at best...a fanatic at worse. How about the consistent repetition of "mercenary proxy-guardian 'police'"? I mean, come on.

Too, the author is all over the place. For example, quoting Clint Smith early, then advocating the trigger be positioned in the first knuckle-crease of the forefinger. That's a no-no. You gotta be about 6'3" or over to be able to get the crease of that knuckle on the trigger and still have a proper web-of-palm grip. And Clint would never approve pulling the trigger with the crease of the first knuckle...the only way you can do it that way is to pull the barrel to the right; you can't track straight back toward the breech.

You throw too much politically-tainted rhetoric at me--at either end of the pendulum--and you lose my interest. You may have something good to say, but that you can't say it for yourself, in plain language, will leave me thinking you either have no original thoughts, or you're just spewing someone else's pre-digested pap.

Not you, Mancuian; the author of that impossible-to-read piece.
