    Finally finished "Unintended Consequences" and "Enemies: Foreign & Domestic"

    Unintended Consequences was a favorite read of mine; I am glad you enjoyed it as much as I have. I cannot think of much out there that is pro-firearms, but I have read an older book from the 40's you may enjoy: Lydia Bailey. The setting is in the late 1700's, and encompasses the new United...

    Do you carry at home?

    I have only carried in the house when I felt the situation warranted it. I had lived by the airport when I was younger & the boyfriend at that time worked nights. When the neighborhood started to go downhill, I started to keep a 12 gauge by the bed until I moved elsewhere. Otherwise, the 12...

    If any of your girlfriends ever question carrying

    spaceman spiff: I have two words in response to your last comment: utterly tactless. You show an appalling lack of common sense when asking if I recovered rounds from a dead animal. With comments like that, I find it hard to take anything you say from now on with any...

    If any of your girlfriends ever question carrying

    ...Ie: were all shots fired from contact, were they aimed, using the sights, a combination of both?" In response to that nicely worded request: * I have a P239 Sig Sauer. It usually loaded with standard 155 gr. Remington 40 S&W centerfire ammo. Nothing fancy. * It is usually carried in...

    Have you read "Unintended Consequences" by John Ross?

    ...Ross' novel 'Unintended Consequences' was intrumental in changing my attitude towards the second amendment. It was painful to read at some points; I had to set the book down and cry, weep, or cross reference the historical facts more than once. but I could not put it down, once I started...
