I am supporting Bush as a Lawyer for Bush in the ghetto (carded poll challenger). I am on a site team. We go to reported problem polls and try to either shut down the problem or gather enough info for a quick injunction filing by the lit teams.
We have Cops for Bush to drive us and secure the egress routes. I am going to the blackest churches (polling places in the deepest ghettos) there are, places where only the revs and the gangs rule.
We are going in lawyer suits.
I carry a taurus .38 in a pocket holster every day.
My choices are:
1) Pocket .38 in one pocket, one or two speed strip reloads in the other.
2) A Colt Double Eagle Officers (Officers size 1911 DA version 8+1 .45) in an MSP paddle and one 8 round reload.
Please note the pocket .38 is 100% concealed, the DE is hard to conceal even under a suit coat. There is a real danger of the 45 being spotted, almost no chance anyone will see the .38. In fact I can, and have, put my hand on the .38 grip with no one the wiser.
If the gun is spotted there is a real chance of a counter injunction and press release for 'armed white supression of black vote'.
What is your advice?
