Ankle Holsters Don't Chafe

Governor Rick Perry is just a regular guy. He likes to exercise and go jogging. With a .380 Ruger.

The governor claims to carry it with him because he is afraid of snakes. But at least once, it was a bad time to be a coyote. Perry told the AP the other day that he needed just one shot from the laser-sighted pistol he "sometimes" carries while jogging to take down a coyote that menaced his puppy during a February run near Austin. His Ruger — which was loaded with hollow-point bullets (because, well, why not?) — came in handy when a coyote came out of the brush toward his daughter's Labrador retriever.

This story could only be from Texas, right?
