Why I carry a handgun, and you should too
By Mike McDaniel

There are many reasons to uphold and cherish the Constitution. Among them is the Second Amendment, which secures every other individual liberty. That’s why Democrats and other would-be tyrants so hate it and work so hard to disarm Normal Americans. With Donald Trump in the White House it’s time to update this article.

I CARRY A HANDGUN BECAUSE:

*Evil exists and may confront anyone at any time and any place.

*Evil exists to destroy all that is kind, good and loving.

*God exists and expects me to protect myself, those I love and those unable to protect themselves.

*Self-defense is a God-given, natural, unalienable right.

*The lives of the innocent—friend or stranger—are worth far more to me and to a just society than the lives of vicious criminals and terrorists.

*By carrying a handgun, I honor the foresight and wisdom of the Founders in writing the Second Amendment, which acknowledges, but does not create, the right to keep and bear arms.

*The Constitution does not bestow liberty; it restrains government from infringing on our liberties. Arms have always been necessary to remind government of that.

This is why: Islamic fanatics in America say they will not stop until they enter every American home, every neighborhood. I'm pretty sure most of the folks on my street are armed. Perhaps we should barricade the street and just mow down the invaders as they approach.

I'm at least going down in a blaze of glory, Habib.
Muslim man sends a message to white people saying Islam is going to take over the world: “There’s nothing you can do about it.”

I carry a .45 and sometimes two. I also carry two Bali song knives and sometimes a .22 automatic as a backup.

You're not going to like this post, because...

... he's RIGHT.

Look at "the progress" The West has made against islam since September 11, 2001.
(ahem, WHAT "progress"?)

A question I've been asking for more than 20 years:
Who's winning?

Who's winning ... in France?
Who's winning ... in Sweden?
Who's winning ... in Germany?
Who's winning ... in Britain?
And for that matter ... who's winning... HERE?

There ARE "things we can do about it".
Such as what I suggested here:
https://www.gopbriefingroom.com/index.php?topic=560438.msg3174883#msg3174883

But... no other member of this forum would be willing to go that far.

The struggle with islam is existential.
It's us, or them.
We did not choose this. islam did.

If The West truly wants "to win"...
... then it MUST go "that far".

I TOLD YOU that you weren't going to like this post.
