TexasFred explains the benefit of a LARGE Caliber Handgun

This is a REAL gun, a .45 ACP. It is a thing of beauty. It is a work of art. It has STOPPING POWER. It does NOT leave wounded individuals lying around the area of operations!

Real men carry .45′s. Serious female shooters carry .45′s. Any shooter that wants the confidence that he has a pistol that WILL get the job done with one center mass hit carries a .45ACP. The caption says it ALL!

This is a 9MM. It is a PIMP pistol. If you have to shoot a PCP head, an Angel Duster, you’ll have to shoot him with 9 or 10 rounds and hope he falls out before he takes it away from you and shoots YOU with it! And again, the caption on the picture below says it all!

Actually, calling the 9MM a PIMP pistol is an insult to pimps. Any self respecting pimp got his girls busy so he could have him a .40 something. It’s a prestige thing, a 40oz Malt Liquor and a .40 caliber pistol. That is a well balanced pimp.

Some self-defense and teaching advice from Irons in the Fire

“The handgun would not be my choice of weapon if I knew I was going to a fight. I’d choose a rifle, a shotgun, an RPG or an atomic bomb instead.”

“The two most important rules in a gunfight are: always cheat and always win.”

“Every time I teach a class, I discover I don’t know something.”

“Don’t forget, incoming fire has the right of way.”

“Make your attacker advance through a wall of bullets. I may get killed with my own gun, but he’s gonna have to beat me to death with it, ’cause it’s going to be empty.”

“If you’re not shootin’, you should be loadin’. If you’re not loadin, you should be movin’, if you’re not movin’, someone’s gonna cut your head off and put it on a stick.”

“When you reload in low light encounters, don’t put your flashlight in your back pocket.. If you light yourself up, you’ll look like an angel or the tooth fairy, and you’re gonna be one of ‘em pretty soon.”

“Do something. It may be wrong, but do something.”

“Nothing adds a little class to a sniper course like a babe in a ghillie suit.”

“Shoot what’s available, as long as it’s available, until something else becomes available.”

“If you carry a gun, people will call you paranoid. That’s ridiculous.. If I have a gun, what in the hell do I have to be paranoid for.”

“Don’t shoot fast, shoot good.

Some self-defense and teaching advice

And my personal favorites:

Never allow yourself to be killed because you lacked something to FIGHT with.

Always carry a totally reliable, HIGH CAPACITY, large caliber weapon, as large as your circumstance allows.

Always carry ample amounts of ammo for said totally reliable weapon.

Always carry a *back up* piece just in case said totally reliable weapon locks up on you, at the WORST possible moment.

No more government bailouts!

Washington needs to know that this increasingly pervasive embrace of bailouts must be stopped before it drowns us in debt and destroys our national tradition of self-reliance. Sign this petition and add your voice to a growing chorus of Americans who are fed up with Washington and sending a simple message: “STOP!�?

This Web site is just one part of an effort to turn the tide on the bailout mentality that has seemingly taken over our federal government. When billions of taxpayer dollars are carelessly dispensed with little or no oversight to companies mired in the consequences of their own mismanagement, Americans must express their outrage in ways that are civil yet effective. For lack of a better word, we are dumping tea into a digital harbor in hopes that federal lawmakers will stop the madness and find sensible approaches to our nation’s financial challenges.

SOURCE: No Government Bailouts

It’s not just the bailouts, it’s about losing America, it’s about the idea that anyone that talks about the bailouts, and any possible solution is now a labeled as a Domestic Terrorist.

We here in Texas are more than prepared to declare our sovereignty and leave the USA, if necessary, that would be a last resort of course, but Texas and her people are FED UP!!

Please visit this site, No Government Bailouts, sign the petition, send them your thoughts and comments. This fight is NOT over, it’s just getting started! And by God, I will fight until I die, this cause is that important.

Our children owe thousands of dollars, our grand children owe thousands of dollars, their grand children already owe thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of dollars, and right now is the time for us to either stop these cretins on BOTH sides of the aisle or it’s time to take Texas back and return her to a FREE and Independent REPUBLIC!
