Thank you for PROVING my point, my post, as to where you get your ideas from - the movies - from fantasy - from ficton.
So you are implying that Rambo is a realistic depiction of the American male?
In Holland the Rambo II-IV movies were all only classified as satirical and not realistic or even as an action movie.
Thank you for proving my point that there are Americans who believe that all the Rambo movies could have been real.
In a urban setting a handgun carried concealed is not only a good defensive weapon (small framed Colt .45 or Glock) but the knowledge that even a few of their potential victims can and will shoot back is a major deterrent to would be muggers.
In an urban setting, muggers are more likely to shoot you first, THEN steal from you, because they ASSUME that you are armed.
As a communications unit did you do alot of attacking?
No we run away. The communication line is more important than our lives.

Theres light machine guns, often considered general purpose machine guns, theres heavy machine guns & a thousand other designations you nay or may not accept as appropriate but they can all be used as defensive weapons.
Right.
I bet you also believe that a nuclear missile is purely a defensive weapon.

Try to be honest TD -
Don't blame me.
I never implied that Americans never panic.
You are clearly being intellectually dishonest TD. Are you a typical example of people from your country? Are they all as intellectually dishonest as you?
Stop blaming me for your own inadequacies.
It is not my fault you only keep seeing things you want to see, instead of things that I have actually posted.
In Florida the muggers shoot first? Remind me to stay away from Florida. If I need to go to Florida under these conditions it will be with a flak jacket and an appropriate assault rifle with pistol back up. I though Florida car jackers only robbed rental cars because tourists could not have concealed carry permits. Jacking a native's car is just too darn dangerous.
I am being satirical. I hope.
PS - Rambo did not exist, does not exist and never will exist.
Very interesting that today's news commentary on the upcoming Supreme Court case emphasizes that the jurisprudence regarding the Second Amendment isn't nearly as cut and dried in favor of unrestricted gun ownership as the NRA and gun lovers on this board would have one believe (and as I have been posting on this board all along).

Why cant you argue intellegently? No weapon is exclusively defensive.
Its the individual & how the use whatever weapon they have.
I have weapons & never use them defensively or offensively tho they would serve for either.
