My DS hubby was jealous so he was next. As soon as my daughter finishes school (4 mons) she will go for hers. We come from a long line of military men in our family that have been proud to serve our country. We don't "carry" to hurt, we "carry" to protect. Times have changed and it just seems to be the responsible thing to do.<br /><br />Thank you for this!Poppy Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07959359271380276306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606161041749648789.post-36414250259512690022010-01-27T12:49:22.529-05:002010-01-27T12:49:22.529-05:00I am a NRA member and always will be. My husband,...I am a NRA member and always will be. My husband, daughter, granddaughter and I are going through a nasty divorce and custody battle right now and there is a TRO out against our son0in-law. When he came tapping on our rural house window one night at 8:30 (full dark out!), my husband pulled his weapon and went out to see who it was. He safed his weapon when he realized it was our son-in-law, but my husband has been berated in court for that incident and we now cannot have our weapons in our home while our granddaughter is there. Where is the justice in being within his rights to protect his family? and against someone who has violated a TRO? I don't get this country sometimes... seems it just needs to be turned over to the criminals and we good citizens need to leave... but where? I will always maintain our right to protect ourselves against the scum on our streets.Kim Clemonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00344807213576604510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606161041749648789.post-9267729179071118692010-01-26T17:21:54.848-05:002010-01-26T17:21:54.848-05:00Agree 100%.

Our right to bear arms was very important to our Fore Fathers. King George had already put into motion the removal of all weapons. Guns don't kill people, people do. The gun is merely the weapon. So if we start killing people with say forks will we remove all the forks? Also Australia outlawed POWs (personally owned weapons - what we armorers called the guns we kept in the armory that were not owned by the military) and in the first year alone armed robbery went up 30%. That's a huge jump. Thanks for this post Joni. Tell your niece great job on her kill. I have a daughter very much like her.<br />{{Hugs}} Amandamorninglorycottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04464399620565474031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606161041749648789.post-39237172126015746152010-01-26T12:04:29.109-05:002010-01-26T12:04:29.109-05:00The VanNorman's believe!!!

Thanks for your kind words. I...Nice post, Joni;<br />Thanks for your kind words. I'm sure it would have been a MUCH different outcome had we not had an accesible firearm. The police officers were on their way, but couldn't get there in time; I would NEVER have guessed that I'd ever be in the situation I found myself in that day with your children and mine. I'm proud of your family that they've taken concealed carry classes. They may never need to use thier handguns for self-protection, but the mere fact they know how to use them responsibly is a deterrent to crime!mary your sisnoreply@blogger.com
