I need a gun license

[crazyjoe]

I got this email today. Some Vato wants to try this shit on me I will bust a cap in their ass!

The Houston and Pasadena Police Departments have issued a warning to all drivers that the gang MS 13 is currently initiating members into their gang. They are rear ending cars and when the person gets out they are opening fire on the person. Please be very careful as just last night an 18 year old girl was shot and killed after she was rear ended. It happened at the Case Ole parking lot on Spencer near the Deer Park Wal-Mart.

I wish anybody in a gang or associated with a gang would just fucking die already. Worthless scum of the earth. THIN THE HEARD!!

Yeah we have a 9 at home, but I don't think that would fit in my purse K9 looks pretty small. I want to protect myself, but I worry about my kids. Guns around kids make me nervous. The gun we have at home us up very high in a locked case with the clip not in it. I often wonder if hubby would even have the time to get the thing out if we had an intruder. lol We have an alarm though so at least we would have a little notice for him to grab it.

when I was a kid we had guns all over the house. I knew where every one of them was. They were all loaded. My parents had 4 kids, with loaded guns in the house at all times, none of them locked up. None of the kids ever played with the guns, or shot any friends/family or themselves.

I think I was 5 when my dad showed me where one .22 revolver was. Said if anyone ever got in our house (who wasn't supposed to be there) while I was home to get that gun and shoot them. He showed me how to use it, but I never shot a pistol until I was about 8 or 9 (at a target, not a person).

If that were to happen today and anyone reported it, I bet kids could be taken by CPS.

Good to know

Silver, you realize the H-town doesn't really have it's own laws that supercede federal, it's the prevailing climate of the police and the justice system. It's not the old west exactly, just not too far from it.

If you get rear ended, and your on the phone calling the police, if one of them grabs the door and tries to open it, shoot his ass. The police won't ask why you happen to be carring a weapon, that will be pretty evident.

the police report will read something like the following:

Wed 4/2/08 11:30 AM
Location: I45 and FM 1960

Big breasted blond was rear ended by 3 gang bangers. She shot one that grabbed the door handle. Subject was DOA, the others are still at large.

that's pretty much it...... that shit doesn't even make the news, except to warn others that that rear ending shit is happening...

i've gotten these emails too in the past

http://urbanlegends.about.com/b/200...ers-rear-ending-cars-and-shooting-drivers.htm

s of March 28 there have been zero -- I repeat, zero -- reported instances anywhere in the U.S. of carloads of MS-13 gang members rear-ending other vehicles and shooting the drivers as part of an "initiation rite." This is the case despite rampant rumors circulating via email and text message in New York, Texas, Florida, California and other parts of the country, and the issuance of police warnings in some locales claiming "credible evidence" that the rumors could be true.

Some authorities are cautioning drivers not to pull over if rear-ended, noting the possibility of copycat crimes irrespective of whether the rumors are true or false.

The rumors are very similar to other "gang initiation" urban legends circulating for the past 20 years, including bogus warnings to the effect that aspiring gang members drive with their headlights turned off and attack other drivers who respond with a courtesy flash.

My co-worker said she asked her cop husband about the urban legend and he says they just tell the community that so people don't worry and shit that it does actually happen. Who the hell knows.

Yep, my brother and I grew up with a father that hunted everything. Guns and ammo all over the place, we knew not to touch them.

Did you get hit with a bullet to the head early on in your childhood years?
