Yeah, but watch out for the grinch that stole Christmas.

Reindeer roasting on an open fire, anyone? :biggrinjester:

That isn't creepy, considering I take out the trash at night wearing nothing but my belt, holster, pistol, AK47 and my motorcycle helmet!

Susan Hupp said that to the Legislature. she had it, thought about it, knew it was illegal, & said to herself, "it's Luby's Cafeteria, I wont need it in here."

She lost both her parents there.

Yes, very sad.

We all owe her a great debt of gratitude for her tireless support of the RKBA and the outstanding efforts she has made to represent gun owners.

My hat is off to this lady! :tiphat:

She'll look at me in a questioning way, raise her hand up to her face and as she brings her hand back down, she will tuck her ring & pinkey finger while extending her thumb, fore & middle-finger for just a second. To which I give her a quick nod (since I'm never without my gun now). It's quick, simple and best of all, silent.

Once she knows I carrying, she will check to see if it can be seen. She'll give me a slow head-shake to confirm the firearm cannot be seen. She has yet to be able to tell if I'm carrying.

I just ask my wife " can you see me?" and i get a yes or no ... works for me
