Yesterday I received a call from my sister to discuss the date for our annual family reunion involving my side of the family. After we saved the world and straightened out the gummit, she popped up and asked if I would leave my gun in the car when we come.I asked her why in the world would I do that, especially knowing there was a shooting from a break-in 3-4 houses down the street!She and her hubby said that they don't have a problem with me OCing, it's, well, 4 people were, well, um, are uncomfortable seeing me with a gun at a family social. It isn't appropriate!It took me 10 minutes to pry the names of the 'concerned' family members from her. To my surprise 2 were her 40yr daughters! BTY, they lived in Alaska for over 10 yrs, so guns don't make them nervous, I would think! The other 2 are my wife's sister and her husband.To say the least, I was hot! My wife was surprised, also. Sad thing is, my sister-in-law has been bitten twice by dogs while going for a walk in the neighborhood! THEY should be carrying!Well, that's my rant. Thanks for listening. Gonna go pound some steel on the anvil!
