I was being facetious, but now that you bring it up...it would be funny if it were not sick, disgusting and true.
Perhaps I should only tote "Delicas" and "Crickets" for their names are benign? I don't know...I do not know, however, I do know this...part of the reason we have these problems is because of the aforementioned group of folks you brought up, Lawyers. Now, are they all bad? Certainly not. I do maintain, however, that a Lawyer that would represent a crackhead with a rap sheet that would run the toner dry in your average printer...printing it...against you, me or any other law-abiding Citizen because he got injured, maimed, or killed...is a piece of sh*t. Worse than an ambulance chaser.
Damn near every Politician making oppressive laws against self-defense is a practicing Attorney. Not all of them, I said, "damn near."
Self-defense is a legal act in most places, a "duty to retreat" in some places, and "no duty to retreat" in others, like your home State of Florida.
I'm not the enemy.
If it is a "justifiable act of self-defense," the question of what you utilized to defend yourself should never enter the discussion, alas, sadly, it does on a regular basis, thus proving the system is a fecal sandwich...
People who carry steel are already dry-banged from the start anyway and I doubt very seriously if there is any way to change that. As Andy Stanford said once, "Bad guys use knives, good guys use guns..." I'm paraphrasing, but all can get the idea of where I am coming from. It is almost a lost cause...
Yet, we are here...we are packing steel and all sorts of little goodies and doo-dads to make sure we go home to Momma...
You must admit the madness that in your home State of Florida, you can get a CCW, carry 2 .45 Caliber, Semi-Automatic Handguns, but yet if you pack a knife that is referred to as an, "Advanced Folding Combat Knife," and you legally defend yourself with it, you could be sizzling in "Old Sparky" at Raiford.
On one level, it is pretty silly, isn't it Bram?
Look at Texas law, you can carry a 5.5 inch folder or fixed blade as long as it does not have the dreaded double edge, and it is not an Automatic or a BaliSong...yet you can pack 3 pistolas however you choose...
When I come on and make light of things, I'm not pissing in your Cheerios...I'm trying to bring an ounce of reality to the situation in an entirely different way then you yourself are Bram.
The reality is, you get in a jam, you call a Lawyer...the other one coming after you is a Lawyer...feeding a Lion in the hopes you will not be thrown to the Tiger is not my idea of fair, "American," or Justice.
