Re: Anyone Carry while riding

In Tejas, we all carry. In order to pass the Texas Dept. Of Public Safety Motorcycle Course you have to agree to start packin. We still remember how the "Alamo" went down and don't want to get caught short again. It was George Custer who was heard to mumble on his death bed "Hey man, there was two of em down thar."

Re: Anyone Carry while riding

I'm with Mavagrand...I've been a Police Officer 23 years and I go NOWHERE without a gun. Being a Police Officer isn't what I do, it's what I am. If there ever was a time I could have prevented or kept someone from being a victim, but couldn't because I wasn't armed, I don't think I could live with myself.
I'd rather have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it....

Re: Anyone Carry while riding

Posted to this thread way back,, but just got a new Mod.23 glock in .40 with a fine quick release holster as my new main carry weapon. The protection of my family is an obligation, a duty which I accepted upon marriage. My own self defence insures continued protection for my family. No less is acceptable.

Re: Anyone Carry while riding

Here's an paragraph from an excellent article:

"If you have no capacity for violence then you are a healthy productive citizen: a sheep. If you have a capacity for violence and no empathy for your fellow citizens, then you have defined an aggressive sociopath--a wolf. But what if you have a capacity for violence, and a deep love for your fellow citizens? Then you are a sheepdog, a warrior, someone who is walking the hero’s path. Someone who can walk into the heart of darkness, into the universal human phobia, and walk out unscathed."

Here's a link:On Sheep, Wolves and Sheepdogs

I am also committed to the defense of myself and family!

Unfortunately, some don't carry because they are following rules set forth by others or themselves. I respect their choice, they should respect mine!

I feel sorry for those that want to carry but aren't allowed to. I don't advocate breaking the law, just changing it.

Thumbs up Re: Anyone Carry while riding

I carry in every state that honors my permit. Have a concealment vest with 2 pocket holsters that will secure my 45 and make it disappear.

Re: Anyone Carry while riding

I built that separate addition onto my existing garage for the bike only. It has it's own driveway, doors, and heater, and allows me to work on (polish) it any time of the year. Winter in Indiana lasts way too long!!!!
