K6s behind my passenger seat, always.
Crimson solo in driver door pocket, step out the car, than it's always on my hip.
I feel safe, my girl feels safe, and I hope no one has to feel threatened by it...:ah:
That simple

If you want to argue you have a right to carry, go ahead, I won't argue. But to argue your country is safer because of it - I will argue that cause it is simply not true.

“When looking at firearm-related homicide rates in comparable countries, Canada’s rate is about seven times lower than that of the United States (3.5 per 100,000 population)"

Timco 2016?

It's pretty sad when of the three people running one of the left is a self proclaimed socialist hates the free market and will raise middle class taxes, the other is extremely Hawkish and is begging for WW3... Also a criminal. Then the right has Andrew Jackson round 2 full of populism, walking all over the constitution, and tariffs... Freakin tariffs.

The two party system is pretty broken and I'll be voting third party this year.

That being said, I have never felt the need to carry a gun in a car or own a gun.

How about that space behind the lower console make a compartment there? Or a drop down holder from under the instrument cluster?

Its a Right.

Its not a federal law or a state law or a local ordinance or a privilege or a guideline or a suggestion.

Its not a political position or a culture or a way of looking at things.

It is equal in importance to free speech, abolishing slavery, and allowing women to vote.

And never forget; the Second Amendment is what protects the First.

Abraham Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt were both third party candidates, both are on Rushmore now. Now Jefferson is my favorite on the monument but never discount a third party. Trump and Hillary both have an over 50% disproval rating, it's the perfect storm!

Who's your third party candidate? Ross Perot? Ralph Nader? There's no one in this race that can truly claim they fit the independent bill. The independent candidates never hold enough of a following to actually win which is why we havent seen one for quite some time.Trump would have been the closest to doing it but the Republican establishment bumbled his anti trump movement and here we are...

While I don't like the idea of trump, I hate the idea of Hillary. South Park put it best. It's always between a dousche and a turd. Pick one. There are plenty of places where citizens have no voice.

On that note, the idiot politicians who claim they aren't voting disgust me. What a slap in the face to every vet who fought for our right to vote and the same system that got their worthless a $$es elected in the first place.

That simple world is long gone. Trump is the closest thing you'll get to a third party. I actually expect him to switch after he's elected. I'll be glad.
