18. Yes but they only carry their guns to impress each other. They talk big but in New Orleans

after Katrina, when the National Guard went door to door asking for everyone's guns, the gun owners cried like babies and couldn't wait to give up their precious guns. In Nevada at the Bundy fiasco, the tough gun totters said they would hid behind their wives and sisters if the Feds started shooting. People (men) that think it's necessary to strut around exposing how big their gun is, need help.
