Good questions, I've been thinking about this for months. I spend a lot of time in Oakland, San Francisco and even my hometown of Sacramento is really becoming lawless. I drove to my oldest son's house in southern California for the 4th of July weekend and debated in my mind about bringing my handgun knowing I would have to drive through LA. I decided not to bring it and was reminded just today that Unless the Lord builds the house or guards the city anything we do is in vain. I tried to find the quote from Ray when he was responding to a critical question about using force to defend yourself home or family but I couldn't find it. If I remember correctly he said that these are rare and unexpected events that the Lord will give us the wisdom and strength we need in the moment.
I just opened an email from my father in law who lives in a small town just north of San Antonio, TX. He served two tours in Vietnam and has never shown any interest in guns and as far as I know never kept any in his home. This is the last paragraph of the email
When I was a kid, teenager, had a shot gun, hunted rabbits at the house on the edge of town. Almost shot Jim in the Leg. After the military, I had no interest in hunting or killing anything, and have never had any interest in a firearm. But, I have been confronted twice in parking lots by Leftist about being pro-life and wearing a Vets for Trump T-shirt. I welcome a debate, but all they do is scream, yell epithets, FU.. With the Communist/Marxist/Progressives becoming more violent in the street, Our little town has a contingency plan to counter rioting, burning, and looting, volunteers will probably be needed to support the small police department, it is probably time now to lock and load. This is the USA? This not about Trump, Blacks, this is desire to turn the country into Venezuela, Cuba...
Love to all,

Sounds like he has had a change of attitude. Thanks Octoberose for bringing this up. I'm really interested in what BT folks have to say
