Well I was just talking from a "not getting in trouble" stand point.  You
better believe that I would grab my aluminum bat if I had to meet a
potential violator outside at 3am.  The way I'd be thinking....if he had a
gun I'm not going to even give him the chance to pull it out.  I may be big,
but I'm not bigger than a gun.  I'd rather be arrested for excessive force
charges, than laying in a hospital somewhere or, worse yet, the morgue.

Now if you're going to get in a brawl on the street with some inebriated bar
patorns, just use some good ole fist in face.  <G>
