bedroom/retirement/sorta rural area. Lots of retired military around here.
I wouldn't wear a burnoose to church though, stand up screaming "Allah
Akbar" and pull out an AK. Life expectancy would be measured in seconds.


Oh, yeah that type of stuff happens all the time. Grow up. You don't need a
gun, you need a clue.

Ahhh... senseless platitudes, where would we be without them. Makes it easy
to believe almost any rubbish.

I won't bother to recant or reference all of the incidents of mass murder
that have occurred within the U.S. in the past few years - many of them
targeted towards locations where the victims were unarmed due to ordinance
or custom. If you are unaware of these it is obvious who doesn't have a
clue.

Childish outbursts of personal insults are a *real* sign of maturity. It's
bedtime now. Turn off daddy's computer and brush your teeth. Night night.

I'm aware of them, oddly with all the heroes packing guns just waiting for a
chance to off some lunatic none of them have ever been stopped beforehand.
Indeed the "gun as solution" attitude probably creates many of the
situations instead of defending against them. I've been familiar with two
gentlemen over the years who were in a supposed "constant state of
readiness" one was shot with the gun he pulled out to defend himself, he
lived but didn't get any smarter. The other died from smoking, guess he
targeted the wrong enemy.

If you are speaking to the conceal and carry laws, you've reached a
conclusion based on emotion, not fact.

No emotion involved at all. I didn't actually consider how a gun was
conveyed to an event, simply the attitude that it's presence seems to bring
out. It's not about killing, it's about power. I've had years to observe the
behaviour of people with guns. Not impressed. In the case of a responsible
(if needlessly fearful) owner carrying a gun fully concealed, why would I
ever know about it? OTOH, you'de be amazed how quickly they get pulled out,
and the stupidity of the reasons.
I've seen far more bullying from people declaring self defence than any
other source.
