Have you ever seen the Indiana Jones movie (I forget which one the scene is
in) where some guy comes doing all sorts of fancy moves, and Ford just pulls
out his gun and shoots him? That's a classic, but it's also true. All these
people that think that martial arts can take down a person with a gun should
watch that clip. One time I saw a Karate class being given in a retirement
condo, I could see that go over like a lead balloon, one karate chop and the
old geezer breaks his arm! Even my father started wimping out as he got older
and started loving mouse guns, 32's 25's and others that would really piss
off a person if you shot them with them! I'll keep my 45's.
