On..." The freak show and it's passing

thru the valley of the Shadow of Death "

Part 52

' Well, that was an amazing time, consuming task...

what do you call this thing ?.." asked a curious

Lil' Moco...

" Oh that... it' a firing pin for the new Glock.

Here, hand me that spring will you ?...Thanks, and it fits riiii-ght

in here. Do you see what that does ?...." asked Jesus...

They were a family. A family sitting around the

dining room table, filled with guns.

" ... and this is a .357 magnum... " the most powerful

hand gun in the world, and it'll blow yer head clean off..."

recited Jesus. Dirty Harry was in Jesus' " Top 10 ".

Lil' Moco laughed and rolled about on his back.

Miles and Dan had came in... " Jesus !??? Damn ! ..."

Dan said, eyeing the formidable arsenal before him...

" I sorta had you figured as the " peaceable " type ",

he said, looking down the sites of a Mauser.

" Peaceable ?, is that even a word ...? ", asked Jesus.

" ...Peaceable : Adjective, " Inclined to avoid argument

or violent conflict..." , read Miles from his iPhone...

" Huh, I like to consider myself " quietly behaved...", Jesus said,

pulling the ramrod thru the Winchester's double 12 gauge

barrels. " The road to peace is about the amount of support

one has behind them. I prefer my support armed. I didn't

just start doing this, you know. Nope, back in the day

I thought a smile, a kind word, and a miracle or two

would suffice... Nope. That had a very negitive effect on the flow.
It's all about the flow...that's when I discovered that twelve guy's,
not eleven, not ten, but twelve armed to the teeth brothers behind me...
Well !!!!, that did make my job a lot easier, so it did....

Wo ! Way easier...!!! I tell ya. "

The room was silent.
Mouths agape in awe...
" Dude...", said Dan.

Lil' Moco smiled.
Miles, licked a paw.

...and Jesus... Jesus cleaned a Sig Sauer.

Then, the phone rang...

to be continued...

Be well todo mundo,
