maybe you should really think about how much this girl means to you. if you feel you can't give up your collection of guns b/c a girl wants you to move... then to me, it means you don't love her enough to take that kind of step towards the relationship.

also, if being in chicago puts you in a better place for yourself and your future, then why are you going to let your guns hold you back. if being where you are now and being able to keep your guns is what makes you 100% happy... then you should just break it off with her.

i personally would have to weigh in all the factors, but what it comes down to for me is... affection, love, companionship is greater than firearms or anything that's inanimate.

If she TRULY loves you, she'll move with you over the border into Indiana!!!

yes i understand that, but my point is... it seems that more people value their toys more than a person. maybe she would be willing to move across the border to Indiana, but that wasn't mentioned. i'm only going by what he has posted.

but to me, PEOPLE > GUNS

Why Guns are better than Women

#10. You can trade an old 44 for a new 22. #9. You can keep one handgun at home and have another for when you're on the road.
#8. If you admire a friend's handgun and tell him so, he will probably let you try it out a few times.
#7. Your primary handgun doesn't mind if you keep another handgun for a backup.
#6. Your handgun will stay with you even if you run out of ammo.
#5. A handgun doesn't take up a lot of closet space.
#4. Handguns function normally every day of the month.
#3. A handgun doesn't ask , "Do these new grips make me look fat?"
#2. A handgun doesn't mind if you go to sleep after you use it.
And the number one reason a handgun is favored over a woman
#1. YOU CAN BUY A SILENCER FOR A HANDGUN.

WHY does she want you both to move to Chicago? Dude, this is a woman you're talking about, she certainly has something else on her mind than what you said. If you go, take a couple weeks vacation first and spend them living where you'd be living, and look around the area and make sure you're not making a big mistake. Is here family in Chicago? If not, why? Watch your 6 o'clock.

I will never live IN Chicago. You are defensless. A couple of weekends ago they had 35 shooting in a single weekend.

Dude, that sucks bad. Get a new woman. Sorry

I think I'd be taking my hard place somewhere else!

**rufusdog** · 05-12-2008, 02:20 PM

I wouldn't move to Chicago not because I value my guns more than a person.

But I value my LIFE above all else.

Any place that does not respect the sanctity of life and the ability to protect said life, will never have me as a resident.
