Get trained and armed

It it time. Time for all of us to act. Obviously we have enemies in our ranks and we are not going to get any help getting rid of them. We must be able to protect ourselves.

I am not suggesting that anyone do anything rash. But, if we all take a few simple steps towards protecting ourselves, we may be able to prevent more Americans from becoming a statistic.

Take a look at Frontsight.com. Simon first brought this one to my attention a few months ago, and my wife and I are planning to take a course there. They offer many courses including their most popular titled "2 Day Defensive Handgun". Frontsight courses are all taught by professionals, inlcuding many police officers. They will teach you the correct way to use a gun in a self-defense situation, and will help you apply for and qualify for your concealed weapons permit.

Join the NRA. I realize that many on the left have done everything that they can to make this group look like a bunch of nuts, but they do one basic thing real well. They fight for our right to own and carry guns. In addition, their ranks are filled with lots of Americans who would like to see this country learn to defend itself a bit better.

Finally, get a conceal and carry permit. After properly learning to handle a handgun, start carrying one. You may actually save a life with it someday.
