Hey, I'm ok with that. We'll keep to ourselves way on out here and those folks can stay in the cities as they burn. However, when they destroy their cities, they need not come out here looking for sympathy, empathy, food, money, clothing, or shelter because all they'll get is some lead between the eyes.
I prefer center mass multiple times. Much past 10-15 yards and my aim goes to shite with a handgun.
Loud as all hell and a 2 foot streak of flame at night has a way of curing some people of bad intent all on its own. For some women or people with a lighter limp/grip, no hang fires to worry about.
Not needing to be as accurate under duress, too...Same reason many USMC units in Vietnam would require corpsman trade their .45 sidearms for non standard issue Remington 870 pump shotguns and the Stevens precursor to the Mossberg 500 loaded with 00 when they got into country.

You should have had one long ago. I hope you have guns already because they're getting scarce and expensive and then there's the problem of finding ammo...
Guns? I'm concealing a long bow....

I would no more drive into an inner city without a weapon on me or in my car than I would without clothes.
If at all possible, never go anywhere with a gun that you wouldn't go without one.
I think I've made my position clear on that issue. I conceal very well and the only thing that will keep me out of anywhere without mine is a metal detector.
I think maybe I'm being misunderstood. My point is simply, and to give an example, if you wouldn't walk around in Orange Mound at 3:00 am without a gun, you shouldn't walk around in Orange Mound at 3:00 am WITH a gun (I would suggest not going to Orange Mound at all at any time). No point in inviting trouble. Anytime you have to use your weapon could wind up being a traumatic experience. Avoiding a fight if possible is always a win, and winning (and continuing to live) is the main objective.
This is not an original thought of mine. Back when I first got my CCW, the retired cop that taught the class gave us this advice. I'm just repeating it.

How dare you question some random internet poster on the authenticity of their heritage... But yes.

Yep. Every person with a CCW has an obligation to try to the best of their abilities to never have to use it. My sincere hope is that my firearm never has to leave the IWB holster unless it’s going back into the safe.
