How long is a piece of rope? Same answer to both questions: "Well, it depends......."

The important thing is to have options.

A Democracy is when two wolves and a lamb vote on the dinner menu. That is why this country was specifically not designed as a Democracy. We are a Constitutional Republic.

If facing those three things and we're going to start a war, which would you strike first? I'd say the battleship every time. I'm not opposed to open carry, i just would never do it. I can legally open carry in my store but I choose not to due to the high chance of robbery in my line of work. Plus customers may be scared off. I hope they pass the open carry law, I just won't be exercising my right to.

This.

I would worry about the submarine if I were worried about an I.C.B.M. being launched.
I would worry about the aircraft carrier if I were in a convoy and the carrier was a couple hundred miles off shore.
I would worry about the battleship if I were on an enemy ship, at sea.

They're all lethal instruments of war.
