		<description><![CDATA[In last week's Monday Blog Post I shared jail house interviews with you from two men who killed for nothing more than cigarettes and pocket change as evidence of why you should have a gun, training, and a Concealed Weapons Permit so you can carry a gun EVERYWHERE YOU GO.

This week I want to share with you an equally strong, yet 180 degree opposite reason to secure a Concealed Weapon Permit.

I want to show you what the Police Chief of Washington DC had to say about the Supreme Court's decision, ruling the Washington DC Gun Ban as unconstitutional&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Greetings Dr. Piazza,

I have been enjoying your e-mails and your new blog. Thank you! You are doing a great service for our Country and for honest hardworking americans who want to live in crime-free society and keep their families safe. The reality is that the police can't be everywhere all the time (fiscal realities you know)! On the other hand irresponsible gun handling gives every one of us a bad name. Finally a saying my "wise" colleague uses all the time (as it pertains to us the police);

<em>"You don't get paid for what you do but for what&#8230;</em>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dr. Piazza,

I enjoyed reading the letter from Col. Grossman. In the analogy of a ranch, I would be a sheepdog and have been for 34 and a half years. I started shooting pistol ( 9mm Browning Hi Power) with a Field Ambulance unit in 1974 in inter unit competitions. My career is coming to an end and I expect one more tour, perhaps Afganistan, to come my way before my contract is up. I am currently awaiting delivery of a Springfield Armoury .45 "Loaded" model full size to add to my collection. I've read most of your E-letters and&#8230;]]></description>

I do want to confirm that I am receiving the reports and enjoying the great learning from these reports already.  The points you are making seem so simple, yet unheard in so many words.  I'm looking forward to the next tips.

		<description><![CDATA[Here are two strong reasons why you should do everything you can to buy a gun, get training and secure a Concealed Weapon Permit so you can carry a gun with you everywhere you go.

The first is a jail house interview with a thug who recently shot two men simply because they didnt have a cigarette to give him.  Thats right.  No cigarettes so he "went in dat mode" and killed them by shooting them repeatedly in the torso and head.

What you need to recognize is this can happen to anyone at any time.  It could have happened&#8230;]]></description>

<blockquote>Dear Dr. Piazza,I am receiving your reports and enjoying them greatly!  The story of Front Sight is incredible!Your personal story is incredible.  The dedication you had in training yourself was fun reading about.

Thank you for your enthusiasm and sincere interest in preserving our 2nd Amendment freedoms and making us all more comfortable with our own Skill at Arms.  What you are doing there is nothing short of amazing and I hope to witness it first hand soon.  The Legacy DVD was amazing!

I spent 24 years in the Marine Corps.  (I bet you get these emails all the time&#8230;</blockquote>]]></description>

The Second Amendment Means What it Says...

My good friend Alan Gottlieb of the Second Amendment Foundation told me several weeks ago when we were discussing the upcoming Heller Decision over some cold (soft) drinks, that he felt we would get a 5-4 decision in favor of the Second Amendment. Alan was right.

This is a great day for gun owners and freedom. Our forefathers are smiling from above. Give yourself a pat on the back and then get to work!

There is still much to be done to further restore the Second Amendment, remove&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[<font face="Times New Roman" size="3">Dr. Piazza,

Congratulations for being <strong></strong><strong><font face="Times New Roman">"</font></strong></font><strong></strong><strong><font face="Times New Roman">R</font></strong><strong></strong><strong><font face="Times New Roman">ight-On"</font></strong> again... I'm all for  <strong></strong><strong><em><font face="Times New Roman">responsible and  educated</font></em></strong> citizens having CCW permits for the  protection of themselves and others. While we all may tend to applaud this man's  actions, things could have ended up very differently. Your analysis of what he  should have done was spot-on and should be drilled into every person carrying a  concealed weapon.

The "Dirty Harry"  mentality doesn't work in the real  world, it's only works in the movies where you can cut the action, retake the  shot so the good guys win and no innocents get hurt. My one of my greatest fears  during my 20&#8230;]]></description>

What would you do if he told you and the teller he had a bomb?

Well here is the video news story of a man who was faced with exactly that situation.

Watch this video news story and then we will discuss what was right and wrong about his actions...

		<description><![CDATA[Dear Dr. Piazza,

I truly enjoy your reports and blogs. I agree whole heartedly with your opening statement of intentions regarding the carry of firearms.

It is appalling to me that any U.S. Legislator or law enforcement official of any kind would vote or legislate against the Amendments of our Nations Constitution, let alone the fact that it is our inalienable right to bear arms. It is my opinion that these despicable people should be tried for treason!

It is a true statement that declares... <em>without the 2nd amendment all others would cease to exist</em>.

I appreciate what you are&#8230;]]></description>
