Yesterday, a recent bill became a law in the state of Minnesota in which handguns legally concealed and carried, provided the carrier is a registered owner, meaning you have a permit to use it.<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s a full story from a local news site.<\/p>\n
All I can say is good for Minnesota! People all over this state are horrified. They think that allowing such a bill to be passed will now increase crime, that it will mean thugs are going to walk all over the place waving pistols like madmen. One of my co-workers says to me the other day, \u201cIf I saw a person wearing a holster and revealing it by doing this (as she moves her hand across her body and places her hand on her hip while moving her camp shirt aside to reveal an imaginary gun), that would scare the hell out of me! I think this new law is going to just increase homicide, increase the rate of fatalities from guns, yada yada\u201d.<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t know about you, but I think if I saw the same thing in a crowd or public place, I\u2019d say to myself \u201c\u2026if anything weird goes down, I\u2019m sticking with that guy over there, he\u2019s armed and protected!\u201d I really do think that way. I\u2019ve read for years about gun control, safety, our rights, etc. and found that in fact, quite the opposite is true. if you look at other states and other countries, you\u2019ll see that crime rates and such actually decrease, because people are taking things into their own hands\u2026not to say that people who are registered, smart, responsible gun owners are above the law, I mean that each and every American has the right to be reckoned with, on a personal basis. If someone invades my home or tries to attack me, my family or my personal property and even if my life is not at risk, I have every right to wave a gun at that person to let them know I\u2019m not up for that shit. In certain scenarios, I can even shoot and even kill that person legally.<\/p>\n
This scares the bejeebus out of most liberals and greenies. Liberals and even some conservative Democrats believe that government forces which tell us how to live, are not only necessary, but something to be respected and obeyed. Such people are complete wussies and they are clueless. The constitution confirms<\/em> my right to bear arms to protect my person, my family, and my personal property.<\/p>\n I\u2019ll be damned<\/strong> if I have to count on the government and its police force to protect and save me. That\u2019s not their job. Yes, squad cars all say \u201cTo protect and to serve\u201d but that\u2019s not the case.\u00a0 They need to change that\u2026contrary to history of our society, and contrary to what you see on TV, cops are not supposed<\/em> to drop everything and come to your house to fight your battles.<\/p>\n That is your job.<\/p>\n Yes, I\u2019m a law-abiding citizen, but I\u2019m don\u2019t agree with more than half of what our country\u2019s trying to do to us as individuals.\u00a0 Don\u2019t even get me started!<\/p>\n Related posts:<\/p>\n Related posts brought to you by Yet Another Related Posts Plugin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Yesterday, a recent bill became a law in the state of Minnesota in which handguns legally concealed and carried, provided the carrier is a registered owner, meaning you have a permit to use it.
