The exact quote is, "Fill you hands you Son of a (redact)!" said by John Wayne in 1969 movie, "True Grit".
As a whole, I do not wish to fill my hands.
I have no necessary need to fill my hands.
And I don't want to pay to fill my hands.
Yet this week it was suggested that I do fill my hands against the Sons of (redacts).
Why?
- The law office across from my has two 9mm pistols; a 12 bore riot shotgun; a M-1919 45cal automatic pistol.
- My boss carries a .357 magnum revolver and a 45 pistol in his office.
- And the lawyers down the way carry respectively a .380 automatic pistol and a .32 automatic pistol with very painful anti personnel rounds.
I have lived to see the legal profession as armed as Rooster Cogburn.
