        There's only one guy in my Dojo who has a gun and he is an ex FBI agent ... One guy. My experience has always been that gun owners by and large are a very fearful bunch with a distorted sense of threats (perhaps media induced) to their physical safety ... fear is the mind killer.

        Oh really? Well, pray tell. How is it you would have this sort of information about your Dojo mates? Cavity searches likely?

        Because they are my friends and I know them personally and trust them and have trained with them for years ... and if you're looking for free cavity searches you'll have to look elsewhere ...

        About what? Ppl who need guns to feel safe being cowards? I know tons of them. Also there's this: https://twitter.com/thegarance/status/964149846557917184 … They want us shooting each other up and living in fear ...

        Love how someone questioning your facts then says "You are most likely wrong" without any empirical evidence.

        1) Toni, This is the kind of guy that goes on Twitter and publicly state he is friends with x-FBI in an effort to bolster himself and then disclose to the whole world that none of his "friends" in his martial arts group CCW Those things alone warrant revocation of his man card.

        Doesn't change the fact that you challenged him on his sources and then said he was wrong - with no back up. Not a good way to debate.

        They’re frightened of the big scary world full of brown people and need a security blanket, so don’t you dare think about taking away their woobie.

        Everyone knows guns are dick-extensions for these “heroes” whose first impulse when confronted with a shooter will be to hide behind the first kid they see. There I said it

        BS. They do so because they have little teeny weenies. Fact.

        my 350# cage-fighting, ex-boyfriend stalked me. You bet I got a gun and learned how to use it, praying I would never need to.
