...comment moderation is on for the duration. I don't do fucktards well and until the geeks develop a Remote Strangulation Protocol, this will have to do. Sorry, y'all.

About Me
- the pistolero
- San Antonio, Texas, United States
- I am a very opinionated guy, Texan and quite proud of it. I lean toward the right politically but have a few libertarian tendencies that my conservative brothers and sisters might not agree with. I like guns, old country music and a lot of other things.
Need some gear?
Wanna get ahold of me?

Essential Reading
False is the idea of utility that sacrifices a thousand real advantages for one imaginary or trifling inconvenience; that would take fire from men because it burns, and water because one may drown in it; that has no remedy for evils, except destruction. The laws that forbid the carrying of arms are laws of such a nature. They disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. Can it be supposed that those who have the courage to violate the most sacred laws of humanity, the most important of the code, will respect the less important and arbitrary ones, which can be violated with ease and impunity, and which, if strictly obeyed, would put an end to personal liberty -- so dear to men, so dear to the enlightened legislator -- and subject innocent persons to all the vexations that the guilty alone ought to suffer? Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.
-- Cesare Beccaria, in On Crimes And Punishments, later quoted by Thomas Jefferson

Echo
The best we can hope for concerning the people at large is that they be properly armed.
