Was having a conversation with my co-worker..
Because I'm known as the "gun nut", they (my secretary and my co-worker) asked me a bunch of gun questions; ranging from "can you really do all that John Woo stuff" to "you mean to tell me you probably can't hit a moving car that's speeding away at 90mph a hundred yards away shooting at it while running and holding the gun sideways?"
But:
<rant on>
Why do they (the anti's) all think that if you have a gun, and the SHTF, that running away is no longer an option??? :banghead:
To me, gettin' the heck out of Dodge is ALWAYS the first option, why start a gun fight when you don't have to.. This seems like a foreign concept to the anti's... They think we are a bunch of cowboys trying to show how macho we are? Look, if I have nothing and you have a .22LR, you win. Rule #1 of a gun fight might be to have a gun; but I can tell you Rule #1 of keeping your innards intact is not to get into a gun fight!
I always tell people, run run run run far far far away!! (Preferably in a zig-zag).
Is it Hollyweird that gives them these ideas? Just because you have a gun doesn't mean you have to use it all the time. To me, guns are the LAST resort, not the FIRST..
</rant off>
ok, had to get that off my chest...
Had a talk with Combat-Wombat about the same subject..
