is the right to be a smartass. I can't start anything whatsoever and probably with good reason. I have to stay lily white because if I start something and it escalates then I no longer have a right to defend myself.
The right to self-defense can be easily lost by starting trouble of some sort.
I say this to clarify that I am NOT running around packing heat and looking for trouble.
In fact I damned seldom run around the neighborhood armed and generally speaking, if I do it means I am headed somewhere where it might be prudent to.
Occasionally my wife would ask me to carry because she knew it would make me behave myself.
