If they had a shotgun in the corner the murderers would not have gotten by with killing this innocent family. That would depend on who might get to the shotgun first. Yeah, it might have saved their lives, if not the out come is the same, moron. |

Here as I understand it the police won't allow you a firearms license without showing them you have them safely locked away in some sort of safe, and if they were to find out you kept your gun in your hangar / aeroplane they'd go ballistic! That's because you have been indoctrinated to fear firearms and that no "good' person should ever need one and they are 'dangerous'. A "locked away" gun is about as worthless as tits on a boar hog. Let me tell you it is the person holding the firearm that is dangerous, and if it were not a pistol it could be a knife, a club or a bomb or even bare hands. As long as the world is full of 'bad' people it is up to 'good' people to be ready to protect themselves and others. Yawn, Yawn, Yawn! |

I'd rather live in place full of only 'good' people, all of whom own firearms Most of the west and mid-west? than a place with one 'bad' person with a gun and all the other 'good' people have none. Like Kalifornia, New York...? :~) |

wrote Get all your avionics marked with secret numbers. Garmin and King avionics are big marks for thieves. Then double up on your security. Live with your airplane and your portable propety and guard it with your life. This is what I am p;lanning to do. Then the criminal element has won. You have been defeated. If you have to alter your life, such that you have to live with you valuables, you are not living your life as you would like; you are living according to what the fear of the thief can do to you. :-( -- Jim in NC |

wrote There were no guns stolen from an airplane and none kept in an airplane. The guns stolen were taken from a hangar with an office sometimes used as a place to over nite when the owner needs to avoid traveling to and from the big city. The thieves had to pick three locks to get to them. One lock to get inside the hangar, one lock to get inside the office, one lock to get inside the desk. One of the locks was a locked steel desk with the three handguns in the drawer. The shotgun was used for over nite protection. This is an isolated airport miles away from the town. None of the handguns were loaded or had ammunition with them. There is no doubt in my mind, that someone who knew you did this, because they had to have known the location of the guns, to go through all of those layers. -- Jim in NC |

Hey, that wasn't me - I think whoever it was thought it would be fun to impersonate me :-) Anyhow, i don't see the point of handguns. Neither do the police in this country. Why? At least with a rifle you can go hunting, but all handgun, or anything automatic, is good for is killing people. Why the hell would anyone be comfortable with the general population running around with weapons like that? All this talk of protecting yourself smells like bull**** to me - I can't see any time when it is acceptable for a person to take anothers' life... And when I hear that you can get a permit to carry a concealed handgun - please tell me that's not true??? |
