Nothing wrong with the 2nd picture.


We pray our sights be straight
and our aim be true
We pray for no pain
to the game we pursue
We thank you Lord
for this land
We thank you for the sights
from our stands
We pray for safety, one and all
We pray we may return next fall

Yeah, I'm sure anyone thinking that old man was a pushover may be surprised busting in that old man's door some night. Glad callnum posted that, a man doing what he can for his own good when the police are only six minutes away and the threat is right in front of you. But I don't think he meant it like that.

Exactly.

Everyone on the innanet is a badass UNTIL it is time to do BADASS shti. Then a whole different set of roles. Mental preparedness , training, situational awareness. Pull the trigger.

Were all gonna die at some point. Can you live with yourself if you had the chance to stop something like and chose to run and save yourself instead? I’ll do my best to give the shooter hell and if I die in the process, I guess it beats croaking in a nursing home after years of regret and saying what if....

That old man exudes more grit and fight than callnum or any of our other resident liberals.

Each man has to realize what he can do to defend himself despite their age. I know that a veteran in a wheelchair is not a soft target since I’ve helped many many disabled vets throughout the years choose and conceal their CCW. 😉

Be afraid of the man that must choose between fight or flight with the option of flight removed.

Currently building 3 pistol ranges in the yard at 20-40 yards and more simulated obstacles. The more one shoots and trains with their CCW the better for muscle memory and muscle memory is the key to putting training into action without “thinking” but with a situational awareness that allows one to be focused and determined without tunnel vision. Tunnel vision is inflexible when flexibility means survival.

Most people go about their everyday lives with their heads up their ass, oblivious of what's happening around them. Most gun owners are completely clueless as to how much they would benefit from training classes. One should give them a clue that they don't know schitt and that they should take as many as they can afford if they're serious. I've had these conversations with people that I know and they're convinced that they know everything they need to since they've "been shooters all their lives". I finally convince one to watch an I.C.E. training video by Rob Pincus. His reaction a few days later was "I never thought of all that". Yeah.........no schitt.

The world we live in is getting more evil by the day. People are going to have to change their thought processes to confront it. It's not like a couple generations ago where things like this occurred so little, that they were anomalies.

CHL stops a psycho with a rifle in a Walmart today.

Note Fox does not mention the CHL aspect, but changes focus.

First of all, you're WAAAAAY off with the first pic....... and sound like a diehard sheeple Liberal as well.


But in the second photo?

Looks to me like a home invader's worst nightmare; an elderly combat veteran, retired Cop or other hardcase who has seen an dealt with violence since way before the criminal was even born Furthermore a guy who knows he ain't got long to live anyhow ergo has little to lose.. A pity THAT guy wasn't in the right place in that Walmart.

JMHO

Do I think I could have thwarted the El Paso shooter?

Only if I could see him.

I am convinced there are those on the CF that get boozed up and euphoric when watching Dirty Harry over and over,

but deep down realise they will never know their limitations, cause they have no intention of exploring them.

WE live in a world where there will always be more men first in the lifeboats than insisting on being last on a sinking ship.
