I won't be the guy with the sword.



BTW, it's too bad you are so disappointed with your own ID here
that you have to use my name.
Tough guy, huh?
Bruce, he's such a scaredy cat that he won't even go for a walk in
the Virginia woods without a pistol strapped to his side.

Well, I'll be honest and forthright...most of the time when I'm
walking in the Virginia woods, I'm carrying also.

A 7-iron is a handy thing to have when attacked by squirrels.

If you two were the subjects of a vulcan mind meld, collectively you
might have an IQ in the normal range.

The Shenandoah National Park, where we hike the trails, has a
substantial population of black bears who are not at all adverse to
attacking people. There are also packs of feral dogs. The latter, I
think, are more dangerous. There have been reports of cougars, but I
don't know anyone who has actually seen one.

I don't know a property owner out there who hikes the mountain trails
unarmed. Many carry big caliber handguns.

Perhaps you two might. It would be delightful to read that the feral
dogs got to you both. Better that than a bear. I wouldn't want a bear
to eat your pustule-covered flesh and get sick.

That's a different story! Where we hiked, the "rule" was a .357 shot
shell at the ready and real cartridges behind it. We never had any
problems but the idea was to have a shot shell as your first shot for
snakes.

What's the latest on concealed carry in National Parks? It was and on
and off deal. Last I read it was off.
