Armed Citizen

I feel this is a web site every law abiding citizen should read. The media keeps telling us how much safer we would be if we did not have firearms.

I feel everyone who has control of a firearm needs proper training but if you read here you will find that in the right hands afirearm can and will save lives.

Please go to this site and read monthly reviews - - -send this site allong!

George all you have to do is go back and read a post right here on Ranchers to know that a gun in the hand of a man that know how to use it can save lives.

Thank goodness the husband had a gun in his truck and was able to get to it.

Thanks Tam - - - I had not seen that post - - - -The site I gave is updated every month.

I'm glad South Dakota is taking the stand they are. After my years on the Sheriff's Department I am always armed and when I give training it seems people always want to know if I have killed anyone - - - I tell them not since 1969 and I hope to be able to say the same on my last day but if need be the date of last kill can change.

When I went to school it was not unusuall for me ( and several others ) to take a shot gun on the school bus and leave it with the driver so that I could go hunting with a buddy after school - - - This was just the normal in rural America back then, hunting knives on our belts, shotguns leaning against the wall behind the teachers desk.

I wonder what wpould have happened if someone tried to attack our school - - - -they would not have found a bunch of sitting ducks. I cannot remember even one time that this was considered unsafe - - - we knew it was a privalige and we attended safety classes and shot rifles, pistols, shotguns and archery. I'll bet you could not find a markmanship course in any public school now.

Kids now days can't even have a pocket knife locked into the trunk of their car on school grounds without being suspended from school. :roll:

Biathlon should be a high school sport.
