You don't need to drag anyone else into the fray. <br /><br />Whether some people wish to ban all guns or not is beside the point. It's not going to happen in any way that is meaningful to me.<br /><br />It's like abortion. Religious wingnuts can try to ban it, but women are going to do it anyway. The same goes for guns.Geckohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09805029131877074052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-84665671463172130732010-03-26T23:21:20.982+01:002010-03-26T23:21:20.982+01:00Yeah, I'll bet you are.Yeah, I'll bet you are.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09806175370305006933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-58079620187453765972010-03-26T23:18:37.061+01:002010-03-26T23:18:37.061+01:00I know I certainly cross party lines in ways never...I know I certainly cross party lines in ways never envisioned by the Federalists, Tories, and Whigs.

The fact that there is crime at all is enough for me. Preventing law abiding citizens from carrying guns is like putting women in jail in case they might have a miscarriage. Let's all stop driving, too, in case we have an accident.Geckohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09805029131877074052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-34202228164639706822010-03-26T16:38:20.649+01:002010-03-26T16:38:20.649+01:00MikeB: “Good one, demo.

As I have suggested on here many times, I feel this can be best achieved by introducing gun safety courses in public education.RuffRidrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13597758856457029471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-75143003330504218072010-03-26T13:46:45.939+01:002010-03-26T13:46:45.939+01:00Good one, demo.
