Do you carry a spare tire in your car? Is that paranoia too?



How many flat tires/blow-outs have you had in your driving life?

Since the steel belted radial tire? A couple. Considering I was
driving 50,000 miles a year, it was a very rare to almost non-existent
event in the last 45 years, yet I still carried a spare, a jack and a
decent lug wrench. I guess I was paranoid about that too.
The EPA says that every extra 100 pounds you add to a car reduces
efficiency 1-2% so it is safe to say the 50 pounds or so you have with
the "doughnut" tire, jack and such costs you about 1% so it is not
unreasonable to say you wasted 25 gallons of gas a year, just on your
paranoia. (assuming the tire and jack were free)

At a certain point my $350 Ruger and a few boxes of ammo are a
bargain. ;-)

My primary interest is defense at this point and that will be inside 7
yards. It will also be a situation where pinpoint accuracy is not as
important as getting rounds on target as fast as you can from the
retention position.

A case of paranoia there. Pretty common among gun nuts.

I assume it's still there, though I haven't checked in a couple years.
But then I don't engage in tire changing drills either.


You just want to be surprised on the side of the road huh?

BTW there does not seem to be any making you lefties happy. I went
down, took the training class, got the background check, got finger
printed and got a photo ID. Then I train to be proficient with my
firearm and you are still ragging on my ass.
At a certain point we just have to say bugger off.

That's the whole point. You carry a spare tire because you need to,
because you've had a couple of flats or blowouts over the years. It
isn't paranoia to carry a spare and a jack.

How many times have you *had* to use a firearm to defend yourself over
the same period of time?

By 'merican standards I live in the Garden of Eden. Especially when

Odd choices but both are run by Democrats so you make a valid point.


That's just...stupid.

Tell us about the times you were sitting down to lunch with your
associates and out of nowhere other mobsters opened fire on them.
We're you packing heat at the time? If not why not? Didn't that
happen on more than one occasion?

There were no such times. Once, in Central America, I was with a group
of associates who were pushing for land reform when some members of the
national army opened fire on several of our group who were sitting at an
adjacent table. The attackers weren't mobsters, unless you think
military officers are mobsters.

What's stupid about it? The fact is that the cities with the highest homicide rates are run, in the
vast majority, by Democrats.
