I agree. Make a folder and add to it every time you find a story from your area or the areas you visit. Present it as evidence that bad things do happen to good people. Is their position based in religion or just ignorant refusal to except the facts of life? I personally consider it barbaric not to want to protect the innocent and especially not to provide for your family. Ultimately, they will except your position and that you carry. Otherwise, they would do more about it. So, even though you will be hassled, you won.Dougmyers5 wrote:Print out some of the everyday news events that required the use of a hand gun or some kind of weapon and ask them to read them.
Plenty of references on this forum to show a need to be armed!
Tell Granny the world is barbaric but it ain't your fault.
When I first got my CHL I had an Aunt that was the same way. Comments and even going to the point of not talking to me. That same Aunt took her CHL class last Saturday. I won her over because I gave her facts and didn't justify her disgust by getting upset. I just went on with my life and treated her the same. I talked to her when I could and she finally got "it". Don't give up. Patience often wins victories when fact and logic fail.
