This is why you own a gun and carry it with you....


Some nutbag tries to murder you on multiple occasions...you have every right to pull out your gun and defend yourself using deadly force. I'm not advocating road rage, of course. Avoid conflict as much as possible. But once it's clear this driver is trying to murder you, deadly force is appropriate and self defense is justified.

Think about this next time you vote for a gun control politician. Gun control is for slaves.

1. What makes you think the driver wouldn't have a gun himself? They both had cars and look how far that got him.

2. He succeeded without a firearm.

3. You're clearly American.

Even if the truck driver had a gun, at least Mann would be on equal footing, even matched, provided both go to ranges and know how to use one.
Yes he succeeded in the end but he overcame pretty incredible odds given the mismatch between the weinermobile and that powerful semi.

It's a fact that in the USA where gun ownership is rampant there is more violent gun crime than every other western country. Compare the murder rate by firearms in the USA to the UK, Australia, Japan, the EU, Germany, etc.
I was once against strict gun control, but the facts speak for themselves. You may have a gun, sure, but so does the other guy, and he's already out to kill you! It's like a personal Mutual Assured Destruction.

That is bull crap. It's obvious gun violence will be higher due to the availability, but take away the guns, and knife and blunt instrument violence goes up.

And you might want to look into the fact that any country that stole people's guns have the highest levels of violence, because criminals can do what they want without fear of being shot.

Finally, someone with some sense. If I were going to rob someone and I had two prospects: One who was armed, and one who wasn't, who would I choose? I'd choose the unarmed one of course. Criminals don't follow the law, so gun control doesn't apply to them. I'm surprised more people don't understand that more guns equals less crime.

And just how would you know which was which?

If there hadn't been such an insane profusion of millions and millions of guns in America, so that gun sales could be more tightly controlled, then gun control WOULD apply much more to them too. But the NRA has worked tirelessly to make gun sales a wide-open free-for-all, and here we are.

And by the way, people who settle arguments with guns are also criminals. Men who shoot their ex-wives are also criminals. Lots of gun owners are "law-abiding citizens" RIGHT UP UNTIL THE DAY THEY AREN'T ANYMORE.

I fully expect to hear this in the near future from the NRA: "You know what? The gun-control people are right. The number of guns in this country HAS become ridiculously excessive, and we've paid off and threatened politicians to make sure that guns are way too easy to buy, which virtually guarantees that crooks will always be able to get them. But it's too late now-- all those millions of guns are out there. Oops. Our bad. Sorry! ;)"

!!! LOL !!!

"More guns make us safer!" That's the voice of the gun industry, and the NRA leadership. And if you're saying it-- and, G-d forbid, MEANING it-- then they're using you as their puppet.

"More guns make us safer!" That's also the voice of the gun itself: "I want us to procreate and multiply ENDLESSLY, until we far outnumber people! Until there are even more of us than ants and cockroaches! The world will be OURS! Those fool humans-- they keep using US to reduce their population, and soon WE will rule! We're like a parasite, like the monster from 'Alien'-- we get inside their heads, and soon they become willing to die in order to protect US! What suckers!"

How do we solve hunger? "More guns!" Poverty? "More guns!" Cancer? "More guns!" Mental illness? "More guns!" Erectile dysfunction? "More guns!" But what about-- "More guns!" But-- "More guns more more more MORE!!!"

If guns were not penis substitutes, there would be FAR fewer obsessed gun-lovers.
