This contrasts well with my last entry, where it was pointed out a gun can be a great tool to overcome someone with much greater physical prowess.
One tired bit of snark used by those who would undermine our right to keep and bear arms is that gun owners are a bunch of cowards and weaklings, which certainly doesn't take into account that our ranks include people from all walks of life including athletes, ex-military, and men and women of unbending principle. Canseco's thwarted (for now) wish to legally carry a gun in CA can hardly be attributed to wimpiness of body or soul.
If a champion athlete who is "a 6'4" 250-pound martial arts expert" deems he would be better protected with a gun, how much more would someone who can't match him physically benefit?
