I understand that there are those among us who are uncomfortable around firearms, and that there are many who should not have access to them.  The 2nd amendment was put in place to protect our rights under the Constitution to include the 1st amendment; it has absolutely nothing to do with sport shooting, hunting or even self-defense.   

It would likely surprise you to know how many law-abiding citizens in your proximity are armed, and you will never know that I am, unless there is a threat to those for whom I care.  As far as the percentage of American citizens who do not support what are called “common-sense gun laws”, I would bet that it is – at this time – a silent majority.   

I will accept the responsibility to help protect my family, and firearms help me do so – it has nothing to do with “manhood” or even with being a man.  I know that I have my wife’s back and she has mine – but we are too old to resort to fisticuffs.   Firearms help make us more equal and when they are taken away, we will all be victims.
