I'm a sheep, but an armed sheep.

Default Armed sheep pretty much says it...

Well, as an armed member of the flock, I'm ready to repel the wolf.

The rest of the sheep have made it very difficult to protect the flock from the inside. What with all the liability involved in a good samaritan shooting, the official sheep dog probably needs to take that role.

Between the time when the wolf threatens and the official sheep dog reacts, it's good to know how to handle the wolf... and live for the next day.

But there are others in the flock that want you to be as vunerable as they are. They tend to live in the middle of the flock, and trust that they won't be noticed by the wolf. The smart ones stay where sheep are generally safe. They don't realize that it doesn't take a spot of bright paint to be designated a target.

I carry a gun to protect me and mine. The anti-gun flock can flock off.

You don't have to wear a badge to be a Sheepdog. Just be willing to repel the wolf.

Franklin glad you have been able to use it in the training of new Concealed Weapon carriers.

But don't tell people that you got any good ideas from me, because most people think I am full of and won't believe you ...
