kw, took it that way. Did not make the schriptural connection though. Good one there too.

kw, I will never, NEVER, ever need my truck inside sears. I don't know that I can guarantee that about my K.

GreenGuy, sometimes the RISK can be minimized w/ some forethought & perception.
1. Is the individual you are thinking of talking to a died in the wool blissninnie or a person of reason?
2. Do they respect you in other areas of reason & do you have a friendly influience in their life?
3. Where do they stand on other but semi related issues?
4. Are they a gossip or do they know what topics should not have names attached to them?
Answer these 4 Q's before you stir the pot & you will usually be able to know whether to speak or keep silent whether in the country or the big city. Set your goal to educate with truth, not to "streighten them out" & let them decide. With your attitued & the desire of your heart you will do well. See you in print.

Yes Greybeard, that veto may well have cost her the Gov. mansion.

Some of us that are as old as dirt were here for the debate & the vote. I have never used my CHL for ID. Never needed to. As far as talking about it, I am very vocal about a few things & never let the opportunity pass. I consider them a RESPONSIBILITY to take a stand for right. My Christ, My Country, my 2nd Amendment, our soldiers & my soldier. I don't go around telling folks, "I have a CHL & be careful not to bump my right hip" but when I take a stand on 2A, personal defense, or such it should not be hard to figure out that I probably do. Every one must decide for themselves if they are to be a concealed CHL holder or a public advocate.
I know there have been those who have come from out of town to the instructor where my whole family has gone so "no one will know that I have one & carry". There must be some in the small town area here that go to the big city for the same reason. I know that I have had several ask me to teach them about guns so they could get one. I have been asked by some that have no idea where I stand on the issue, "preacher what does the Bible say about this".
I have a good friend who has a small shooting range at his house that is also very verbal about it & invites people to the range to introduce them to arms & the Good Guy side of guns & shooting. On about any issue that comes up I am going to fly my flag. Personally, on any issue of importance I want to see yours. I don't like having to watch my back trail. My .02 cents. Some think it is worth about half that.
