    I had to brandish my weapon last night.

    I arrived home from work around 9:15PM. I had my HiPoint .45 in its canvas drop-leg holster at my 3:00, supported by my Calvin Klein tactical belt.

    I was, of course, open carrying. I don't cover my guns. Only queers cover their guns.

    I walked in the door and heard a ruckus in the back bedroom. Glass breaking, things hitting the floor, muffled obscenities. I immediately drew my weapon and assumed the weaver stance. The ruckus continued.

    I thought about calling the cops, but I decided against it. I don't see any reason to put those amateurs in harm's way. I handled it myself. I considered a tactical roll but chose a more stealthy approach. I sliced the pie across the living room and breached the door with my weapon in the low-ready position.

    The perp was standing next to my dresser, pulling things out and throwing them to the floor.

    "What the hell are you doing?" I said.

    "What the *$&# does it look like I'm doing!?", replied the perp. "Get the #$*$ out of here and take your @&#* with you!"

    "What did I do, honey??"

    In response a large candle was thrown at my head followed by another string of obscenities. I told the perp to keep her hands where I could see them.

    The perp rolled her eyes at me and retreated for cover behind her laundry basket. I surveyed the room for further threats and stood down. The perp was watching Dancing with the Stars and ignoring me as she folded underwear.

    Threat neutralized. Tango down.

    I'm not looking for advice on how I could have better handled the situation. I posted this more as a how-to for those of you who don't know the correct tactical response to a threat. You're welcome.

    Yeah, I can see the wife worrying you're going to hurt yourself with the hi-point. Does she hide it from you?
