    You have GOT to be kidding.

    If they try to rob you and you pull out a pellet gun, but they have a REAL gun, you are going to die.

    Not everyone is going to be intimidated when you point a gun at them. What happens if they don't fall for your bluff?

    This is what I carry.

    Apparently, I'm supposed to be more angry about what Mitt Romney does with his money than what Barack & Michelle Obama do with mine

    Only if you want to die, as opposed to just losing some money

    If he's lucky.... As we all know, more than a few people are dead as a result of pointing toy guns.
