The Left has driven a wedge between not only political sides in this country. But also race as in Immigrates.

And if there is ever a break down in society and large groups come to your door wanting what you have (which at that time can't be replaced) well you get the picture or you will just denied it will or even could happen..

What ever dude...

Concealed or not. I bought a Mossberg Semiautomatic shotgun in 1999. It was for my wife because I wanted her to be able to make a lot of noise if she needed to fire it. We lived in the country and I was traveling a lot overseas. When I divorced her I gave her the gun. We never fired it. It was in it's case under the bed. Last time I went hunting a shotgun went off accidentally as I was getting in the pick up. Another guy was laying his gun down in the back of the truck. Boom, right through the back of the cab of the truck. The pellets even dented the gas tank. Missed me by about two feet. That was all I need to see. Haven't been hunting since then. That was around 1974. Shooting mud hens of all things. Ridiculous.

BTW, rule 1 of firearms is never point a weapon at anything you don't intend to kill. If you were hunting with someone who doesn't clear his weapon before placing it in the back of a pickup, then there were two fools on that trip.

Point two. Owning a weapon for self defense, never firing it, and storing it cased under the bed unloaded is a fools game.
