Wherein Blackeyes Realizes that given right circumstances he could end someone's life

I have a beautiful wife and four gorgeous children. I also have 2 brothers, a sister, and a great mom. I adore my nieces and nephews and treasure my friends. My wife has a sister and a brother who she treasures more than anything.

For them… yes.

I’m fiercely protective of my own, but what good could I do them if I was in jail?

I live in Texas, and I have a Concealed Handgun License. Were I not mentally prepared to defend myself and my own, I would not have pursued the training necessary to obtain this license. I have had weapons at the ready in my home and my automobile for years, but the license allows me the right, without legal question, to defend myself and my own anywhere, and at any time. No, I’m not paranoid that something horrible is going to happen. I simply believe it is better practice to have a gun and never need it, than to need one and not have it.
