6. I have to agree

I'm 60 disabled and I live in the country, alone. I have a 100 pound bulldog that probably would be useless for protection. I don't need a drifter coming by and me with no protection.
I own a 357, it is under my pillow. I don't tell anyone about it. No I don't like guns, I buried my baby brother when he was 11 from a gun accident. I am a staunch democrat,liberal,lefty, peace lovin old hippie type, but I'll be damed if I'm going to stay 35 miles in the middle of no where without a gun waitin for the cops to come.

Or when the ole fat bulldog woke me a 11 o'clock one night and said there is somethin in the living room that I ain't never seen before andhe looks mad. It was a big ole rattle snake coiled up just a buzzin. Now that will freak ya out.
