I live in the same state that you live in. As a matter of fact
I have a home 70 miles north of you in Bay City, and I have a home
in Detroit. So that does mean that we're in the same state.
Since GM shutdown BuickCity Flint is like a ghosttown. However you
guys do have the famous Michael Moore there in Flint.
Whenever I visit Flint you can believe that I am armed, but being
armed does not give me permission to shoot anyone because they
look like a crook.
In CCW training a person is taught self-control, and anger
Management. I carry my permit and weapon because I carry a
large amount of $$$$ at times, and years ago I was robbed at
gunpoint plus held hostage for two weeks until I manage to
escape.
Thereforth I do have the legal rights to protect myself by
any means. |
