The last time I was asked "Why Do You Carry A Gun"? I replied, "For Protection Against Jealous Husbands And Boyfriends". Then I walked away without saying anyting else.

Good one.

I ask them if they have a spare tire in their vehicle, or a fire extinguisher at home.

Hanging lights on weapons is for house-to-house combat for operators, not homeowners....

House-to-house fighting is what homeowners should expect. They're fighting in THEIR HOUSE!

I didn't say fighting. I said combat and house-to-house combat is NOT THE SAME AS HOME DEFENSE!!!

Sorry - lights attached to your home defense weapons are a mistake. YMMV, as always, but you'd be wrong.

I was with dad one time when a person asked him why he was carrying a gun. He said when he saw someone he wanted to shoot he wanted to have his gun with him. The other guy walked off. Larry

There was a tv movie (don't remember which) where a daughter asked her dad why he had a gun. His reply was "I don't know, but I would sure hate to not have it when I find out".

I recently picked up a M&P Shield 2.0 with a built in laser. I figured the laser would be good on a house gun and maybe I'd carry it Instead of the 380 Colt Pony.

I actually shoot it better using the sights as opposed to the laser

LOL.... I guess all those years of training as a cop to do building search in pitch black darkness with WMLs was a waste of time.

So, the 250,000 Floridians who lost power should just blink harder in the dark, right?

Florida power outage map: Over 240,000 without power as Hurricane Debby makes landfall

The storm made landfall as a Category 1 hurricane on Monday at 7 a.m. near the coastal town of Steinhatchee, according to the National Hurricane Center. At the time of landfall, more than 200,000 outages were reported.

I'll stick with my WMLs thank you very much.
