A gun in the home puts you at great risk.

Resisting an armed robbery with a gun put you at 5x the risk of injury than not resisting at all.

A military style 'tactical' rifle will not enhance the size of your manhood.

Most successful defensive gun uses are against un-armed petty criminals or innocent bystanders.

Just because you wear camo and carry a gun that looks like the one a Marine uses doesn't substitute for military training, you're still just a dumb ass wanna'be.
