Mess with my family, especially my children and grandchildren and you will have a crusty old military guy wide awake, with more tricks that are proven to successful in taking you out, than you can ever think about.

Friday I was in the parking lot at Home Depot and saw for the first time ever, a guy open-carrying. He had it properly holstered at his right-side. Very unusual to see this in our area. I wasn’t concerned (I had mine properly concealed on my body) but this guy looked like one of the hot-head, braggart types.

It was revealed in our Sunday School class recently that there are plenty of concealed guns being brought to our church - and approved by clergy.

This was a hot topic after the Sutherland Springs church massacre south of San Antonio last November.

I have seen a lot of open carry around here, but never like this dude. His behavior was way out there and he kept touching the weapon, maybe to make sure it was there. He sure made a lot of people nervous. He appeared to have already been drinking or using something to create this behavior. I thought he was nervous because he was going to stick up the store for the beer. NM has some rules on the books about being under the influence and weapons. If you have a CCL and armed, or an open carry weapon in possession and under the influence, you just opened the door for a felony.

Within the past 2 years, two different package bombs were exploded at the entrance doors while people were in attendance. No one was harmed, and no one ever caught. The cameras showed the bomb being placed, but never a lead on who did it. I know people carry in our church, but we have deacons assigned locations, that carry for the safety of the church members.

It also fires .45 Long Colt. A friend carries one as back up when bear hunting.

When I lived in Alaska, I carried a 357mag a couple of years for protection, could not get a 44 mag anywhere. Well I finally did get a 44 mag and it did make me feel a little safer when out and about. A lot of guides carry a shotgun, not to kill, but to destroy the bears sense of smell.

He was probably a new gun carrier anyway. Someone that has been carrying is long past the touchy feely stage. At our monthly breakfast of 10 couples who all ride, a guy came in open carrying. We almost all wondered how many guns would come out if he pulled it from his holster. I'd bet at least 15 guns would come out as most of us all carry but you'd never know it. As far as the Judge goes, it's a fun gun to shoot. I considered carrying it and had a shoulder holster for cross draw made for mine. But I went back to the gun I've been carrying for years after carrying the Judge for a few months. Old reliable just felt right one morning when I put it on instead and been that way since. But the Judge is fun. Does not kick like you might think. I think my .410 shotgun kicks more.

Yep. People think it won't happen but there are people that want total control. Not bringing people up to a certain level but bringing them down to 3rd world status. People better wake up.

Makes perfect sense to liberals but then they would NEVER consider taking away something THEY want.

Don't be a dinosaur.

Again, a false equivalency. Cars are not DESIGNED to kill, guns are.

Guns have one purpose in design, to kill. No amount of posturing changes that simple fact.
