Why I choose to be armed

Sebastian D'Souza took the following picture on November 26, 2008 in Mumbai, India.

There were armed policemen hiding all around the station but none of them did anything," he said. "At one point, I ran up to them and told them to use their weapons. I said, 'Shoot them, they're sitting ducks!' but they just didn't shoot back."

Mr D'Souza added: "I told some policemen the gunmen had moved towards the rear of the station but they refused to follow them. What is the point if having policemen with guns if they refuse to use them? I only wish I had a gun rather than a camera.

Could Mr. D'Souza have made a difference? Maybe. Who knows what one or more armed citizens willing to stand up up to these murderous thugs could have done. How many people's lives could have been saved with just one dead terrorist?

This is one of the reasons I choose to be armed. If I should find myself in such a terrorist event, I might be able to save the lives of myself and others. I have chosen that I will not willingly be a victim of violence (random or otherwise).

Shooting Avtivity September 7, 2008

I went shooting today. I shot:
125 Rounds of 45 ACP from my 1911.
75 Rounds of 9mm from my Star BM.
50 Rounds of 45 Colt from my Ruger Blackhawk.

Starting To Log My Shooting Activity

My CHL instructor recommended we log all of our shooting activity. That way, we can demonstrate that we maintained our competency.

So, yesterday (July 19, 2008) I shot 50 rounds of 45 ACP from my 1911.
