Awakenings.

Reader Gunther sent me a link to this Scaggsville post. Money quotes:

No more excuses. No more waiting. Arming myself to protect my family, friends and possessions is now my new paramount concern.

—

I will not be an unarmed victim. This is the second time I’ve seen in 10 years (LA early 90’s) Americans, devoid of direct police authority, behaving in a manner unbefitting of members of a western civilization.

—

I will be ready if it happens to me. I will not loose(sic) everything I have because I relied on someone else for either protection or to respect our shared social contract. Armed response is an option I will have.

I will not go down whimpering.

I won’t beg for what’s mine.

Emphasis in original. And he’s got really good taste in armaments, too.

Welcome aboard.

Thanks for the tip, Gunther. Good post.
