I'm a do-gooder hero who carries a gun wherever it is legal for me to do so. I'm also a trained, combat-experienced soldier and a licensed lawyer. I'm more qualified to carry a gun than most cops. I know how to use it, and I know when to use it. I go to the range 2-4 times per month, and I'm conversant with all the major cases on use of force, use of deadly force, and urban combat tactics.
Good for you.
Do you want to take my gun away?
Nope. You seem as though you would be rational as to its usage.
Y'know, Anna, if some knucklehead decides it's his day to go out in a blaze of glory, and take you with him, Colpy and I are the two people hereabouts you want closest to you.
Fine. You two can fight it out with "knuchlehead", I'm gone.
Both of us would make sure you were down on the ground, behind bullet-proof cover, before we went all Dirty Harry.
You wouldn't find me, and if I thought staying was a good idea, I'd lready be on the ground before you could blink. but you go ahead and get all "Dirty Harry" all you want.

Look, I'm not anti-gun. I just think unless one plans on using one, it should stay home. EG: when we go hunting, I take one, if I go target shooting, I take one, if I am going shopping, they stay home, if I go fishing, I take fishing gear, not guns.

Here is a video of Tecumsehsbones and Colpy saving AnnaEmber......

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSZoRrdASEY&feature=youtu.be




Yeah - THAT IS the video that plays in T-bonesforbrains head...........................


whenever he picks up his little gun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Too bad THE REALITY - would probably be something else ENTIRELY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Cant you just see the LAWYER doing his own replay of that OLD scene from Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


You know the one - where Butch explains the RULES of the knife fight......................................


except that as a lawyer - T-bonesforbrains would be first trying to get that opponent TO SIGN A WAIVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


And then fleeing like a frightened child if there was no signature and thus no waiver of responsibility for shooting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have no idea what TB did in the military.
However, the US military has many different branches, including securtity forces that are part of the Air Force.

My AFS (Air Force Specialty), which the other services call MOS (Military Occupational Specialty), and could just as easily be spelled J-O-B, was "Radio Communications/Analysis Specialist." At the time, that was designated "202X0," but they've changed the designators since then.

Yeah, huh? And what happens if I am shopping on Mars and there's a robbery? Or swimming at a beach and there's a terrorist with a body bomb?
DUH
I gear up appropriately. Just saying.
