I'll bet the surviving students at VA Tech, are wishing they had a gun. I wish they had one too. Too bad someone hadn't been able to shoot this guy before he was able to do so much.

I have a 9mm and a 22lr H7R.

I have an agreement with the Lord.

He keeps them out of my house and I won't shoot them.

I have guns and would use them if need be. I am a man of peace....but mess with my family and I transform into a man of war!

I have a .45 pistol, 9mm pistol, 9mm carbine, .22 rifle & a .223 Bushmaster (mean and nasty!).

As long as I am alive and able, I will have a gun in my home...regardless of what laws are passed! If the government is allowed to take our guns, we are finished as a nation when it comes to freedom!!

What about trusting in God for protection? Are we not watched by angels?

I have a Glen-field 30-30 lever action. Never shot it, never had any ammo.

It's up in the attack.

He and I have the same arrangement.

If He lets them in, it is my signal that their number is up.

Right.

That's when I send them "home".
