hmmm, interesting. when i was 17 i was being trained by my uncle sam in
the uses of powerful weapons. he seemed to think i was old, mature,
grown
up enough to handle them. turns out i was. i have weapons on my boat,
in
my home and on my person at all times. if you have ever needed a weapon
to
keep yourself or family alive, you understand what i mean. regards,
j.d.

And, because you were "matrure" enough to have them at that age, that
means
all those 17 are? Hardly. It's a fact that a young person's brain isn't
fully mature (on average) until they're in their mid-20s.

Spelling Nazi, what about this 14 YO that just passed away?
Was he mature enough?

What's your problem joey. I didn't correct your spelling. Could you
possibly find an example of a rec. vehicle being attacked whereby it was
protected by a teenager with a gun in the last 10 years? I bet there's one
or two.


unrelated crap removed

I disagree with your assertion that you have them "on ..your.. person" at
all times, unless you never have to go on a plane trip, visit a Federal
(or
State) building, or a bunch other places where they're restricted. Are
you a
cop or in the military? When was the last time you needed a weapon to
"keep
yourself or your family alive"? Where you on your boat? What were the
facts?

Why doubt the man?

Because it's sounds like bs. Why do you believe him? Last I checked this
is usenet.

I own guns and I see their place in society.

I'm curious. If they are not for protection in the one place you only
yourself to rely on, where else is a more proper place?

?? Their place in society is protected by the Constitution. I don't think
a boat in foreign waters qualifies, but as I've said many times, feel
free.

I choose not to carry them
aboard, especially if I'm going to another country. You can choose
differently of course. The problem is that some people have decided that
if
someone chooses not to carry a gun, that means they must be labelled as
weak, ineffectual, or "liberal," which is complete bs.


No the problem is if you carry a gun, some snot nose weak liberal
has a problem with it, and assumes you are a "right wing nut".

?? Please show me where I said you're a right-wingnut with respect to this
discussion. I didn't. You're the one who starting flinging your sh*t.



Temper, temper! Ha ha! It looks like Gaynze forgot to take his meds again.
(Either that or an LSD flashback?)
