Best rebuttal to "You live in [small town], why do you need..."
How many of us live in a small town, and get the age-old braindead question perpetrated by people for years...
You live in (small town, PA), why do you need to carry a gun?
I've reacted in some of the following ways, I'd be happy to hear your rebuttals:
- I hope you're right, but if you're not, I'll be prepared and you won't
- A cop is too heavy
I'm sure we all have heard and used a million of these... what are yours?

I'm moving to the violent, crime infested city when I retire, and guns arent getting any cheaper. I'll be ready.

Considering that about 1-in-7.5 people in my county is licensed to carry, chances are you might get asked "you live in Brookville, why aren't you carrying?" may be greater. ...which is what I usually retort - "look around, this is Jefferson County.. 1 in 8 people is carrying a gun. Even less if you factor out children and felons."

Re: Best rebuttal to "You live in [small town], why do you need..."
At the moment, for me, it's:
Because my neighbor beat his girlfriend, has had the cops to his apartment 4 times, has a record for drug possession and dealing, I've seen known local druggies in and out of his place, and if things get ugly and come my way I have vowed that my family WILL NOT be victims without leaving behind empty casings.

Another Sugar Grove OC'er, I bet that gives Sugar Grove the highest ratio of OC'ers per capita. We've got what 100 people and if there's two of us we're doing pretty good
I've yet to get asked.
Maybe the Amish just don't care.Last edited by Gunfighter04; January 12th, 2010 at 03:48 PM.

You have a 1/2 acre lot. Why do you need a riding mower?
Your eyes are pretty good, why do you need a 63" TV?
These are things many people claim to need, yet they question your need for a gun.
I call anyone who questions my "need" for anything a moron.
I hope I never need my gun, but I carry a gun because I can.
