Soft target senarios and situations seem to be coming to the fore-front again these days...

Kinda stinks with the holidays creaping up on us...

I was born in '64...

And then the mold was broken...

Born in 1964. Your just a baby!

Yeah, that may be true...

But, I am a well armed and safe baby...

Or a off duty cop saw you with gun drawn.................

IMO, that handgun is for SELF-protection.

For sure, and this is where I'm leaning. But - would you shy away from ANY protection of another stranger?? Idunno if I can do that. It seems heartless but im not sure - it may be smarter? This whole thing has me more confused than ever on what I wanna do.

Guys...

This is a chance you take every single day...

Like some say...You hope you never, ever have to do it...

But that doesn't mean I run with blinders on either...I'm certainly not super-hyped up and thinking everyone I see is a threat, nor do I let the guard down...Its always kept at a happy middle ground...I've learned to live with the amount of stress that level of awareness puts on the mind and body...

You'll never know it either, if you saw me walking around in a mall...In a parking lot...A movie theater...A restaurant...etc etc...

All the places you'd think something could go down at...I've learned to scope out in 30 seconds...And the first thing I look for is the nearest exit...Sounds horrible I know, but heck, if you can exit the scene, all the better...

And if you cannot...Well...Thats another long discussion full of "what if's" and other variables you can plug into the situation till the cows come home...

If you simply look at the precentage of licensees in this state, and of course take into account the consentration in certain areas helps you see that your chance to run into one of us is almost astronomical, but not improbable...

Like I said its a chance you take everyday...

Thats cold blooded man...

After years of being treated like crap everytime I was in ATX in uniform (I was in the corps) I feel great about some band guy getting cav crap on him.

Well, it surely wasn't very manure of him to do that in the first place...



Whats that smell???

See John...

I told you you'd get some good stuff here...

Did I lie???

My signature lines here unlock many doors that help you and other develop the "mindset"...

You already know how your going to do it...Now its time to discover why...

But you already know that too...

Thanks for posting that John...
