[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1466580, member: 30902"] I was filling up a water tank at the city well today. There's a herd of kids that live close by who come to play in the water that spills. About six or eight come running down tonight and a little girl comes over and asks, "Why do you have a gun". I tell her, well because I can and because I make a big part of my living teaching people how to be safe in the storage, handling and use of guns and because I think it's my duty to be prepared to defend myself and others in the event something bad happens. Pretty soon I have a half dozen of them standing around talking to me while the tank fills and one of the "mothers" covered in tatt's, 50lbs over weight with a cigarrette hanging out of her mouth comes running down with her "boyfriend" both of which are among our local meth head crowd shows up with a look of panic on her face. She yells at the kids, "Don't bother that man with the gun". I tell her, "Ma'am they aren't bothering me at all we're having fun". She yells at them again to "move away from the man with the gun." I look at her and say, "ma'm, that gun is very secure in it's holster and isn't going to jump out and hurt anyone, they are fine, we're all perfectly safe here'. I thought about pointing out that her kids were in far greater danger from her 2nd hand smoke and filth but I just smiled and went about my way. [/QUOTE]
