I carry a gun because I can, it's my right to protect myself, my family and innocent people on the street from those who are intent on harming people.

Feel free to depend on the police, who if you haven't figured out, respond to crimes for your protection.

When seconds count, the police are only minutes away.

It is not the job of the police to protect you, that's your job. Police show up after the crime.

Isn't the motto "To serve and protect?" Just sayin....

If I'm not mistaken even the Supreme Court came out and said it's not the police's job to protect individual citizens.

So if it's not their job, whose job is it?

The police are re-active, not pro-active (they can't be). The rape, burglary, assault or whatever crime is over when they show up.

The iPod touch I have works fine, but once in a while I like to listen to my original iPod so if you can tell me how you do it, I would really appreciate it.

Sorry for the thread jack op.... don't shoot!!! lol

Honestly, I just plugged it in and it worked. Wish I could be more help...

The LAPD had a public contest to come up with there new motto. That's how that phrase came about.

This is true. Police officers have the right to NOT protect you in order to protect themselves. Much in the same way firemen have the right to refuse to go into a burning building for their own safety.

B.O.T -
I looked in my glove box today and there are a pair of carpet trimming scissors in there too along with a razor knife. You never know...

Not very safe keeping a gun in the glove box in case your car gets broken into, just saying.

Why not?
It locks.
Most people I know have a cheaper glovebox gun and then carry their "better" gun on them.

I'd keep it flipped the other way, you know? Just saying.

I always keep my guns safety off one in the chamber. I dont have kids so no need to worry about them. If i am in the situation where i need to use it the last thing i want to be worried about is having to flip the safety.

Thank you i really like it. For the price you cant beat it. It is almost identical to the glock 26

Yes I think that's what's he meant. Wouldn't be unrealistic to slip up to shoot yourself with it chambered and safety off.

This is where i put it while driving.

it's not very much of a lock. Plus even though your saying the cheap gun is in there, it would still be in the hands of a criminal. I'm in law enforcement and not allowed to keep my gun in the glovebox, that's why i'm saying this. Has to be in a lockbox secured to the car. Unless i keep in on me all the time, which honestly gets old fast and uncomfortable with seat bolsters.
I guess I could always just get another gun......but still, they make a good point of keeping a gun safe.
