well there is always something out there that is a potential threat. I just hope that it never happens that i get attacked. If I do i at least know i will be able to defend myself unlike that dude in the article.

Why do I carry? Turns out getting thrown in prison for a few years pisses some folks off.....

He's out, but he hasn't made good on his threats, yet. Or, he saw the Magnum Magnolia and I OCing, and moved on with his life....

Love.

A deep love of life and the people I choose to have around me.

While it is a true answer I find it funny that it has stopped antis in their tracks.  I suspect because it's not what they expected to hear and didn't have a canned response ready.

The anti's expect us to say that we carry (oc/cc) because we want to do harm to another individual. When you counter them with logic as Bronson has it seems to short circuit their thought process.

As to why I carry..... Because I have a wife 5 great kids and numerous friends that I will lay my life down for if need be. Or as Bronson said the people I love.
Some people live an entire lifetime and wonder if they have ever made a difference in the world, but the Soldiers don't have that problem.
