and I take it the yankee man has a problem with southerners?


What makes you say that? All I've done is point out that there seems to
be regional cultural differences that may account for the different
points of view on gun control. Until my recent research, I was unaware
that Southerners were so thin skinned that they tended to shoot each at
the slightest provocation.

Its ironic that many Southerner gun advocates will talk about protecting
their family from burglary, when their high murder rate can be
attributed to the large number of friend and acquaintance murders. Here
in the Northeast, there are almost no murders outside of the inner city.
I live in a city of about 100,000 that has about 1 murder every 5 or
10 years.
