Police and thieves in the streets -- scaring the nation with their guns and ammunition. I'd just as soon have nothing to do with either of them. Gawd... eyes rolling |

bike cop shoots driver from hood of car
I think Kevan was trying to get a rise out of me with his, "Cops and robbers
should play their little gun games where other people can't get hurt." comment. I didn't even read it though until it was quoted by others because I ignore his posts. I do however hope he succeeds in avoiding both cops and criminals since that would mean he won't be either an offender or a victim. Regards, Bob Hunt |

How safe would you be if the cops were unarmed, and the criminals ran amok with their guns? National Guard armory. In fact, my next door neighbor is "Martin's Gun Shop." Then, down the street from that is a warehouse that stocks beaucoup hunting weapons. And then, there are my real people neighbors, one of whom enjoys his fully automatic weapons to no end. Me, I rely on my big fence and my dogs. Those are all legitimate weapon owners and users. More legitimate weapons are GOOD for the safety of society. If I moved to the city, I'd try to find a place next-door to a gun store and an automatic weapon owner. How about the criminals with illegal Saturday Night Specials? Do you have the meth-crazed dealers shooting out their gang wars? -- Rick Onanian |

How about the criminals with illegal Saturday Night Specials? I stay away from them, and they stay away from me. It works out well. Oh. You must live in a comfortable suburban area, or even a beautiful rural setting. Do you have the meth-crazed dealers shooting out their gang wars? No. In fact, yours is the first I have ever heard of "meth gangs." Eh? Meth gangs? I just said the dealers are hopped up on meth, not that their gangs are based on meth culture. Usually, they're called biker gangs. And again, I stay away from biker gangs, and they tend to like their privacy as well, so they stay away from everyone else. Biker gangs are no big deal. It's the urban street-crime gangs, whose only known purpose is eradication of similar gangs, that are a danger to law-abiding citizens. Essentially, if you feel you need a gun to defend and protect yourself, then you aren't using your brain to its full capacity. Or, maybe you are. Or, maybe you live somewhere other than a cute suburb -- in the city, the criminals run amok and take down innocent bystanders, and way out in the country, there's generally no cop for so far, your only defense is your gun. Disclaimer: The only stuff I know about gangs is what I read in the paper every day about the latest killing in Providence or Boston or NYC, where there's always some innocent kid who was wearing the wrong shirt, or was standing in the wrong place... -- Rick Onanian |

No, I said me needing the assistance of cops with guns is as likley as Bush telling the truth about Iraq. That is a bold statement, but it's not "never." Bush probably won't tell the truth about Iraq, but there is always the possibility. I must say it really IS amusing to see the left suddenly put so much importance on telling the truth. Just a few years ago it seems that trying to get someone to tell the truth constituted a witch hunt. Heh. Mark Hickey Habanero Cycles http://www.habcycles.com Home of the $695 ti frame |

I must say it really IS amusing to see the left suddenly put so much
importance on telling the truth. Just a few years ago it seems that trying to get someone to tell the truth constituted a witch hunt. Conversely, I suppose we could also say it is interesting to see the right suddenly put so little importance on telling the truth. Sorry to stray off-topic, such as it is.....

Did that ever matter in here? Pete |
