I wish they'd (bicyclists) would pay something to ride the things on the streets. Around here, they take one entire lane away from vehicle traffic and give it to bicyclists who I rarely see riding in one. They sure get a lot of free asphalt and impede the traffic flow for their selfishness. You must envious that we hold the moral ground. Otherwise they can make bike lanes for us --which take no more than 3 feet-- and then you can trade your bike for this other bike... http://www.sunbicycles.com/sun/bicyc...tchCruiser.htm |

the official viewpoint of the revolution
--Why do they do this? Are they environmentalists protesting car
usage? Not a very good way to bring positive attention to their cause. I can't understand why someone being attacked like that wouldn't just step on the gas or door the heck out them. Sound's like self-defense to me. The means to end rarely justify actions like this regardless of the value in a cause.-- The way to do it --and this is the official viewpoint of the revolution-- we should not block the streets (stupid), but WE SHOULD TAKE THE LANE (smart), because WE TOO ARE VEHICLES and driving on the right hand gutter only lends to invisibility and discrimination. So as our official T-shirt says, "We will TAKE THE LANE, until we get BIKE LANES, so we can RIDE FOR PEACE"... |

how your armed citizens would have prevented this particular incident?

Come to think of it, narcotics is illegal in NYC and DC too, and guess what? Fine, let's legalize (or regulate) narcotics. But how your armed citizens would have prevented this particular incident, an armed professor or armed students? This is fine in Switzerland where people are trained in the militias and they take a rifle (not a handgun) home. But America can't even make fine cheese! (or chocolate) |

"John Kane" wrote in message oups.com... Certainly would have been. On the other hand do you really want a bunch of 19 year old students, whooping it up in the local univ bars and carrying all sorts of heavy weaponry when the males get into a strutting contest? Hell, you'd probably lose more people on a normal Saturday night. We're talking about LEGALLY posessed firearms. In order to buy a handgun you have to be at least 21. Also being in possesion of a firearm while intoxicated is against the law where I live and probably is everywhere else as well. |

This is fine in Switzerland where people are trained in the militias and they take a rifle (not a handgun) home. A full-auto one, I might add :-) And they DO have handguns also. So, you would have no problem with the National Guard here taking their M-16's home, right ? http://www.guncite.com/tpgswiss.html Purchase of handguns is licensed on a "must issue" basis at the cantonal (state) level, with "firearms purchase certificates" issued to all adult residents without criminal records or history of mental illness. There are no restrictions on the carrying of long guns, and only fifteen of the twenty-six cantons require carry permits for handguns (which usually require that "necessity" for carrying the handgun be demonstrated). http://www.guncite.com/swiss_gun_law.html http://www.theblessingsofliberty.com...article11.html "More per capita firepower exists in Switzerland than in any other place in the world, yet it is one of the safest places to be." "While many shoot for sport, all males aged 20 to 42 are required by militia system regulation to keep rifles and/or pistols at home." But America can't even make fine cheese!
