His philosophy was (and I am quoting him here!) "I might be queer as a three dollar bill but I ain't gonna let you beat the fuck outta me without leaving a few bruises on you." Seems like a few other folks have picked up that sort of attitude.
I can see how putting the fear of getting shot into the equation might just slow down the gay bashings. Makes sense to me, but I am another "librul" that thinks gun ownership is not a bad thing at all.
Webster said "An armed society is a polite society." and I'm not sure but what maybe he had it right in more than a few ways.
