It's usually best to have a polite conversation when someone that has a 45 on them.

The guy pointing the 9 mm at my balls was a close friend of mine. I pushed his hand away, so we could get back to being polite.

I've always noticed how polite people are at gun shows, gun stores and gun ranges. Who'da thunk?

To be honest, I find polite people at church as well as some other places.

Yes Sir but is that not when the shotgun is there in Church to get the Right answer from the groom
the pale writhing man who wonders how it could go like this

Polite is one thing, honest is a completely different thing.

They were referred to as "sheep shears" when I was a kid. Bring back bad memories.

Dad was very particular about trimming after mowing the lawn. In the late 50s/early 60's, weed whackers hadn't been marketed yet, or if they had we'd certainly never heard of them. I had the pleasure of trimming as needed with a pair of those wretched things.

Much akin to digging a ditch with a teaspoon.

Here in Florida we have to conceal. I live on the line with Georgia which allows open carry, but even while in Ga., I still conceal. But ya' know what? That's why they make chocolate and vanilla. Stay safe, my friend.

I've of the mindset that you don't tip yer hand while playing Poker and you don't advertise you're carrying.....
