You must not live in a civilized society or little concern for the dangers of a weapon. My wish for you is that you never have to use the gun and that this gun of yours never used against you or your love ones. I wish you the safety and peace that we lack here in the 'third world'.

If man wants to kill another man, he will choke him, or stab him, or throw him over, he will kill him. but if a man takes your wife, because he is a thief with a gun, and rapes her with you at gunpoint, and you have nothing but youir bare hands, you will surely cry. I hope to settle down soon, somewhere, and have my gun, so that no one messes with my kids and wife, and if you dont belive it your own right to protect your family thus, you are lacking something of the human spirit, and I wish you away from this world.

Any way, my guess is he is a goverment security or so, buy for sure he is not a local, I been living in Antigua for 35 years and it's not legal for a civil person to carry a gun. I'm telling you for personal experience. This guy is not a local from Antigua, have your noticed?

It is difficult to comment on this gun issue. Unfortunately in an environment where corruption plagues the government agencies that are supposed to protect us, and where they carry big guns and lots of them, the good people are sandwiched between them and the the illegal drug/other dealers. Lets not mention the land owners and their hench men! It is a necessity that if I owned a business or carried out some kind of money exchange on a regular basis, that I would want to protect it, my family, and myself. Having said that, the cowboy in the photo feels the need to carry a gold watch and a thick gold ring. I guess if you're going to have to do that in Guatemala, then it goes without saying the gun is a given. Best regards for the New Year! Being a revolutionary (at heart anyway).
