Re: Obama Asks for Gun Violence Victim Stories

I just posted my story as well:
I am have almost hit the 40 year old mark, and without a readily accessible firearm I would have never made it this far. It was the summer of 1994 and I had my windows rolled down on my vehicle, was enjoying the weather and paying less attention to my surroundings than I should have been. As I stopped at a stop light two males ran up from behind and attempted to car jack me. At the time I lived in VA (which allows open carry of a firearms without a license) and was fortunate enough to have a .40 Caliber Handgun with a standard capacity 15 round magazine loaded, chambered, and on my right hip. In one swift motion I drew my weapon and hit the “up” button on my power windows. The attempted car jackers turned around quickly when they realized that they were dealing with an armed citizen.

As a reminder Mr. President “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”
