I love keyboard tough guys.
Type at me some more!

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
There is truth to this regarding stupid people. But I think overall we are safer with CCW and people carrying, and here is why: First off, It is true, you might have the one off 'moron' carrying who is not mentally fit to be carrying. I won't deny that could and does happen. But those are going to be low numbers in comparison to those carrying who are perfectly sane and fine. In addition, the one off moron would likely fire his weapon in a situation where someone pi$$ed him off and it would be a targeted shoot on one person, the person who made him mad. Bad as that is, and it's very bad, but it's not as bad as the terrorist who comes in to open fire on the crowd, randomly, killing dozens. Or as bad as the ghetto bank robber high on crack who could shoot any number of random people, take hostages, who knows... And with the terrorist and bank robber, all it takes is one good guy with a gun to stop it and potentially save any number of lives.I think concealed carry is terrifying. The last thing I want is to be surrounded by morons with loaded guns. And I'm not directing that at anyone here, but just think about how fvcking stupid people are.....and they get dumber all the time. If I see a crime being committed, I'm going to run away, not because I'm scared of the criminal, but I am scared of taking a bullet in the back of the head from some lunatic trying to be a hero.
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
Clinton's assault weapons ban, George H. W. Bush's 1989 import ban, the 1986 machine gun ban signed into law by none other than the original RINO, Ronald Reagan. The feds could simply ban manufacture, import and ownership of handguns, except for law enforcement or military purposes, and make your state-issued concealed carry license worthless overnight.Examples?
How is any of that going to affect the 200,000,000 weapons already in the hands of American citizens or the ability to carry them open or concealed? The US government cannot an will not ban ownership of handguns which would be a clear breech of the Second Amendment. If thst were possible,met would already be done.Clinton's assault weapons ban, George H. W.
