Thanks brother.

I would love to be added to the list.
I suggest that if you can find in your inner self the will to inflict violence on someone who is trying to victimize you, and can back up that iron will with all the force that you can muster, you will most likely be successful.
Array
Ok, I finally finished. It's a good read, I just havent had ANY time. Especially with school, Im doing enough reading as it is.
Going to update this thread with the next person in line. Will try to get it out this weekend.

Ferris..you have a Private Message..
Sometimes in life you have to stand your ground. It's a hard lesson to learn and even most adults don't get it, but in the end only I can be responsible for my life. If faced with any type of adversity, only I can overcome it. Waiting for someone else to take responsibility is a long fruitless wait.

I own this book, and would be happy to share it as well with other DC members.
I will check the list and see who's next!
I would like to get it back at the end of the loop, ok?

That's a great gesture, Jon! I am sure the folks who haven't yet read the book would appreciate it. Hopefully, folks are realizing what a must-have edition this is for one's personal defense library. Though a bit dated, it is a classic overview of the pros and cons of living to a higher standard in the area of providing for one's own security and defense. It ain't all peaches 'n' cream, as Ayoob makes abundantly clear in his teachings. I hope everyone ends up purchasing a personal copy, after reading it once.
Your best weapon is your brain. Don't leave home without it.

It's Friday morning, and I still have not heard from the next person on the list, so if you would like to have a copy of this to read, let me know.
And thanks to CCW9MM for making the suggesion.

OK, First Sgt has responded and is getting my copy. I hope to receive it back at the end of the loop, and I hope everyone that reads it learns something from it.

Well ****..
I just sent my copy to First Sgt. Balls. I guess he'll just have to send it on.
My apologies for taking so damn long. I never had any time to read, nor did I have time to send it off once I finished it.
Array
No problem. I'm reading the copy that Jon sent me...When I receive the copy Ferris sent, I'll forward on to the next person.
