I have a gun. I have it for two reasons...

I like target shooting, but I could do that will a less powerful weapon such as a BB gun.

The primary reason I want killing power is because I travel with a friend who is very attractive. She is often approached just waking down the street or when we are traveling. On one trip years ago, when we pulled into a rest stop there was a group (gang?) of street assholes who started making rude comments to her as she made her way to the ladies room.

They backed off when they saw me approaching from the car. Since that day I never let her go into restrooms at relatively empty rest stops without escorting her to the ladies room and then waiting near the door for her to come out.

I realized that sometime in the future, there may be a time and place where somebody might not be as ready to back off. On those occasions I want to be armed.
