Mr. Poodle is clearly the ignorant one. He thinks that it's ok to put more guns on the streets. It's not only OK, it is better to have more guns on the streets so long as they are in the hands of competent law abiding citizens. Cities and states with the most restrictive anti-gun laws have the worst crime rates and vice versa. Meanwhile, states that passed versions of the Florida law allowing concealed carry saw a drop in crime. Remember, if there had been one armed person on each highjacked plane, 9/11 could never have happened and police would still have to get warrants to search our homes. |

Actually, that's not true. NYC is a great example. They've got extremely
strick gun laws and violent crime is way down. Turns out California also has strict laws and mostly won't be affected very by the Federal ban being lifted, although it is possible that guns of this type may be smuggled in from Nevada and other less restrictive states. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Vito" wrote in message ...

Yes, down from once being the crime capital of the country, but it is still far more dangerous than, say, Fredricksburg Va where nearly half the residents have permits to carry or that good old southern town that requires residents to own guns. |

Actually, that's not necessarily true, since the hijackers were trained to deal with air marshalls. In any case, that's not equivalent to butting guns on the streets, unless you're advocating regular citizens to carry guns on planes. -- Jonathan Ganz (j gan z @ $ail no w.c=o=m) http://www.sailnow.com "If there's no wind, row." |
