TTAG invented the term OFWG (Old Fat White Guys) to make a point: there are a lot of us. And a lot of us are armed. But wouldn’t we all better off spending our time at the gym rather than the gun range? The odds of dying of a weight-enhanced disease are, what, a thousand times greater than suffering serious injury of death at the hands of a violent criminal? And aren’t our odds of surviving a violent encounter significantly better if we can run rather than shoot? Are you balancing looking after your health with practicing your gun-handling, marksmanship and self-defense? Or is CCW an excuse not to get fit enough to fight?
