Gun Owners of America
Dear Mr. Fields,
The following few paragraphs from your latest e-mail alert scared the living hell out of me:
Let's assume that you and your family are on your way home from church. You have a gun in the glove compartment that is there for self-protection.
After driving within 1,000 feet of a school (which is almost unavoidable), you stop by the grocery store to pick up a few items for lunch.
As you are exiting your car, you are approached by a gang of teenagers, armed with long screwdrivers and wrenches. Realizing that you are about to be mugged, you brandish your firearm in order to scare them off -- although this act on your part is a violation of state law which requires that you first retreat, rather than defend
yourself.
It's a common scenario. I've thought about it many times. Which perps would I take out first: the ones with the long screwdrivers or those wielding wrenches? Would my Glock give me enough firepower, or should I carry my Bushmaster assault rife tucked away behind my kids safety seat? Do we need to legalize hand grenades for situations like this?
Here's another scenario I've thought a lot about. I'm driving back from a Promisekeepers rally in Portland. I stop at an isolated town to get some gas and pork rinds. Soon, I notice that people are starting to gather around me. They're wearing hoods and pentagrams. Obviously, I've stopped in one of those Satanist towns that were so often the settings for "movies of the week" in the seventies. What would I do?
In a free society, I'd be able to call a friend and have him drop a load of "snake and nape" on the evil bastards. Unfortunately, I live in a nation where good men are denied their God-given right to keep and bear armed close support aircraft. We need to do something about that.
Feel free to use my scenario in future mailings.
Heterosexually yours,
Gen. JC Christian, patriot
