I Miss Reagan

Post by Keith B »

With the vote on Campus Carry pretty well split along party lines today, it made me think of this. I miss his wit, his vision and his fortitude.

I was young during his terms (just missed being old enough to vote on his second term), but I do miss him.

Ronald Reagan was the first guy I voted for for president, and it was on my 21st birthday. Sure do miss him.

I joined the US Army under Reagan, and I got out under Clinton.

Your best option for personal security is a lifelong commitment to avoidance, deterrence, and de-escalation.
When those fail, aim for center mass.

This is such a great video. I let my son watch it. He asked who is he...? I thought, yep. Texas schools are doing a fine job. It was fun talking to him about it.
I like to keep this handy... for close encounters.
