Why I started this blog
I get very agitated when I read stories about things that happen to unarmed citizens who would have been able to "fend off" their attacker if the politicians in government had obeyed "The Law of the Land," the Constitution of the United States when it said "[T]he right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." Subsequent politicians have quibbled over the unnecessary addition of a reference to a "militia," pretending that a "militia" was only the State-sponsored militias we know today. The truth is, the term "militia" that was in use when this document was written referred to all Americans. It was put in there specifically to make sure that American citizens could be armed for self-defense -- even against the government itself, if necessary. Today it seems, it is "unthinkable" for every American to be armed for self-defense, even though it is laughingly easy for criminals to get guns "on the street" to use in their nefarious actions. It amazes me that politicians think the way to self-defense is for all Americans is to disarm ourselves. But like the Orientals, hundreds of years ago, we have come up with a good substitute: the disguised stun gun or pepper spray. Personal Defense Consultants has one of the best lines of such items.
