Today’s Lesson: Personal Protection is YOUR responsibility!

I don’t know if this ad is legit but it was fun to read…I hope the Bad Guys are paying attention??

Be Safe!

=============================================
To the Guy Who Tried to Mug Me in Downtown Savannah night before last.
Date: 05-27-09, 1:43 A M EST.

I was the guy wearing the black Burberry jacket that you demanded that I
hand over, shortly after you pulled the knife on my girlfriend and me,
threatening our lives.

You also asked for my girlfriend’s purse and earrings.

I can only hope that you somehow come across this rather important message.

First, I’d like to apologize for your embarrassment when I drew my
pistol after you took my jacket. The evening was not that cold, and I
was wearing the jacket for a reason.

My girlfriend had just bought me that Kimber Model 1911 .45 ACP pistol
for my birthday, and we had picked up a shoulder holster for it that
very evening.

Obviously, you agree that it is a very intimidating weapon when pointed
at your head, wasn’t it?

I know it probably wasn’t fun walking back to wherever you’d come from
bare footed since I made you leave your shoes, cell phone, and wallet
with me. [That prevented you from calling or running to your buddies to
come help mug us again].

After I called your mother, or “Momma” as you had her listed in your
cell, I explained the entire episode of what you’d done. Then I went and
filled up my gas tank as well as four other people’s in the gas station
on your credit card. The guy with the big motor home took 150 gallons
and was extremely grateful!

I gave your shoes to a homeless guy outside Vinnie Van Go Go’s, along
with all the cash in your wallet. [That made his day!]

I then threw your wallet into the big pink “pimp mobile” that was parked
at the curb … after I broke the windshield and side window and keyed
the entire driver’s side of the car.

Earlier, I managed to get in two threatening phone calls to the DA’s
office and one to the FBI, while mentioning President Obama as my
possible target. The FBI guy seemed really intense and we had a nice
long chat (I guess while he traced your number, etc).

In a way, perhaps I should apologize for not killing you . . . but I
feel this type of retribution is a far more appropriate punishment for
your threatened crime. I wish you well as you try to sort through some
of these rather immediate pressing issues, and can only hope that you
have the opportunity to reflect upon, and perhaps reconsider the career
path you’ve chosen to pursue in life.

Remember, next time you might not be so lucky. Have fun doing your laundry… those boxers looked a little mushy!

Have a good day!

Thoughtfully yours,
Alex

P.S. Remember this motto. An armed society makes for a more civil society!

Great post!
I have been interested in going to the firing range and becoming more comfortable with owning a pistol. I am still uncomfortable having one in the house with a child, but at the same time, I am uncomfortable living without one and knowing we have no protection.

This was a super fun ad to read.

Leane…
Owning a gun is a huge responsibility… but can provide the ultimate personal protection in your home. I would encourage you to become more familiar with how they operate to gain some confidence. Stay tuned for a future lesson titled,”How Guns Work…Guns Don’t Kill People…the Bullets Do”! :)
