13 year-old boy stopped for burglars from entering his home by firing the
family's shotgun, wounding one robber and scaring off the other three. The
four men were planning on attacking the boy's mother--an 85-pound terminal
cancer patient--in order to steal her pain medication.


Please don't start another gun thread in piloting. This guy Lott has a long
history of writing juiced-up stories backing gun use. The point of this
particular anecdote in the story is, of course, not that some kid lives in a
neighborhood of thugs, it's that the little gun-toting punk was born when his
mother was 72, according to the ages.

Try again. The mother weighs 85 pounds. Her age is not mentioned.

Great discoveries are not announced with "Eureka!". What's usually said is
"Hummmmm... That's interesting...."

Think maybe Stella has been too influenced with the media and the public
indoctrination (certainly not an _education_ system based on this particular
boner) system?


Yup, it was a careless goof on my part. Good thing you never read or hear news
and didn't go to school. That must make you smarter, though I don't like
everything you've written and that's a pretty good record for a newbie. It's
hate at first sight, sixderringer.

Keep shooting your mouth off Stella. Your "education" is really apparent.
And just how much "tenure" do you have...as if that means dick?

What you seem to like is that which conforms to your adolescent/preconceived
notions. Wow!! How impressive!

As a "Newbie", I've been involved in that subject for forty years...so who's
the newbie?

Here's a dollar -- buy a clue!
