Make with the gun an uneasy alliance, for it shoots you in the back as often as it has your back. It is said, when you point a finger at others, three fingers point back. Well, perhaps it could be said, when you point the barrel of a gun barrel, three barrels might point back, for the gun is not to be found in your hand alone, but in all the hands that might rush to oppose you. If you trust in the gun, you trust in a friend that is never true. If you trust in a gun, you trust in a weapon that is your enemy as often as your friend. Friendship has no certainty when the friend is but a gun. The gun that can save your life, can also take it.
