And still...if I own a gun, I don't want criminals knowing. That makes
you a target.


That's just silly Emily. Think about it. There are two people you have the
opportunity to rob. You know that person 1 has received training in how to
use a gun and there is a pretty good chance that they are carrying it on
them. Person 2 has not had the training and is probably NOT carrying a
firearm.

Which one would you rob? Add to that I kind of doubt that the criminal
element is going to be heading down to the State Police (or whomever manages
your CCW system) filing FOIA requests. That would sort of leave a paper
trail when peoples handguns started getting stolen.

Matt,


You obviously haven't seen a personal attack before.



I have. And lame backpedaling, too.


Pretty thin-skinned then.

Nothing to back pedal from.

They do. But only if I die overseas.

I'm not sure keeping it in a bra would be very comfortable.

I think they make special holsters for bras and/or special bras with
holsters built in.

Getting mugged isn't always comfortable either. :-)

Great. Now I just *have* to google bra holsters.

I'd imagine not. Fortunately, I don't get out enough to really be at
risk.

Actually...I bought a car a few weeks ago in a not so great part of
town. I would have paid good money for a gun then.

It has been said that Dolly Parton can conceal a 44 Magnum,
but Twiggy had trouble with a 25 auto. Padded bras and
small guns.

The point is, men must buy pants a size bigger, jackets a
little bigger, shirt tails a little longer. Women also have
to make changes to what they wear.

The journalists photo vest, surgical scrubs, it all depends
on whether you want to carry and what the laws require. I
general, a concealed weapon must remain concealed so as not
to terrify the general public. Just how that is done,
depends on your body type and fashion sense.

I saw a well built girl wearing a T-shirt and a pair of bib
overalls, lots of things were concealed.

Guns are like fire extinguishers, you rarely need one, but
when you do you need it very much.

It is a good idea to not go somewhere with a gun if the only
reason you feel comfortable going there is because you have
the gun. Cops and soldiers have to go in harm's way.
Private persons do not. The gun is for the time the
predators and wild animals [there have been many people
killed and maimed in Kansas by dogs] come to you at the
market or when you're driving back to your home. A favorite
robbery tactic is to wait in the shadows near a garage door
and sneak in right behind your car. Your gun in the house
does you no good, the gun in your car does. Tip, put yard
lighting so it covers the areas around your garage so no
robber cam hide within 50 feet.

How do you get your guns otherwise?
