I do not own a gun to protect myself from other people with guns. I own a gun to protect my family, period. It wouldn't matter whether the aggressor was carrying a gun or a pocketknife. If he comes at me or my family, I will defend myself and stop the threat.

All too often there are people out there who don't understand why I, or anyone for that matter, choose to use a gun instead of defending with my fists/foot, or something less lethal. My answer is pretty simple, why should I fight to defend myself or my family? I'm not out to prove i'm a badass by kicking the shit out of someone, or a group of people. I actually abhor violence, but i'm willing to employ the most lethal kind I can when it comes to the defense and protection of my loved ones. It has nothing to do with being a gun nut. A gun is the most effective weapon to provide protection for my family. I will not just let that be taken away without a very nasty opposition.
