They will have to pry those guns from my cold dead fingers. The bad guys are going to rob the people that have the good stuff and a lot of people think that just because they live in a nice neighborhood that they are "safe". Well that kind of thinking can get you killed. As for ever being in a situation where I could have used a gun. Yes, years ago I was over at my girlfriends apartment (now wife) and an x-boyfriend who could not take a hint kicked the front door in. Now at this point he did not know I was there. The look on his face still haunts me. At this point if I had my gun I legally could have used it (confirmed by the arresting officer). I did not have a gun, and thankfully he did not either. I beat the living S%$T out of him and all as well. If he had a gun I would not be telling this to you guys. That is when I talked to my buddy (the SWAT officer) and he set me straight. I now know what to do. If it ever happens again the fight will not last as long.
