Had the South won (and it was closer than many people realize) the
Confederacy would have fallen apart.

I once heard that New Bern was to have been the titular capital of the
South, had they been victorious. Any veracity to that?

My 10ga. signaling cannon. Hurts no one, but gets one's attention rather

There's no best one. You need a shotgun for close range, a rifle for
long range, and each of your crew should have pistols. If you're
going up against the coasties, you need at least one Ma Deuce, and
probably a swivel gun.

I wear a pair of black powder pistols and an eye patch. Haven't been

You need the press to publicise the fact that there are 30,000 gun
deaths in the US each year, and only 45,000 motor vehicle deaths.
Consider that motor vehicles are used each day by most people and,
if
you're a thinking person, see the point.

The point is, we should outlaw cars. Riiiiight.

Guns don't pollute. Cars do. The entire planet is being killed off by global
warming. We must ban cars!

Your premise about guns and gun ownership is false. As long as one doens't
violate the rights of another, no justification of owning anything to anyone
is required. You are, at heart, a totalitarian. It is the same form of
reasoning that a right wing religious nut uses, just different specifics.

I own guns for my family's protection. I want my 5 year old to be able to
take on a burglar when we leave her home alone. She can handle a 22 mag with
great proficiency. Why dial 911 and wait for help when you can pull a
trigger and then dial 911 to come and pick up the body?

Amen!

Hey, ya got two choices here, you could show the real value of guns by
forcing people to carry one every time they went for a drive...pretty
soon, congestion on the roads would be non existent.....and no-one
would need to buy those stick on bullet holes anymore......do they
sell them in the US or do they just have the real thing :-)

Gun Crime Soars in Run Up to New Laws

The Sydney Morning Herald, Wednesday, October 28, 1998

Crime involving the use of guns is on the rise despite tougher laws - but
gun control lobbyists maintain Australia is becoming a safer place.

The number of robberies with guns jumped 39 per cent in 1997 to 2,183,
according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, while assaults involving
guns rose 28 per cent to 806 and murders by 19 per cent to 75.

Almost half of firearm killings in the seven years to 1997 involved weapons
which are now prohibited or restricted following the slaughter of 35 people
at Port Arthur in 1996, according to Australian Institute of Criminology
research.

But gun groups say the new controls have created a thriving black market.

"Before registration, there was no illegal market for long arms and
semi-automatics," the president of the Firearm Owners' Association of
Australia, Mr Ron Owen, said. "Now the black market of pistols has increased
tenfold, and both criminals and non-criminals seek them. And the black
market of machine-guns has at least tripled." However, the national
spokesman for the Coalition for Gun Control, Mr Roland Brown, described the
$500 million gun buy-back scheme which has taken 640,000 weapons out of
circulation as an "unqualified success". "Australia is a safer place," he
said.

But the 1997 statistics were "next to useless" because the new national laws
were not in force completely until July this year.

"Figures for 2000 or 2001 will be more useful," he said.

"It can take five or 10 years for these laws to become fully effective and
for the results to show. A good performance indicator is that there has been
a change in the composition of arsenals of guns.

"No longer are most people able to own semi-automatics or pump action
shotguns.

"Rapid-fire weapons are just about finished in Australia - and this has
reduced the prospect of mass killings significantly."

The gun control lobby also says crime statistics can be misleading. Latest
research shows that a third of all firearm murders involve intimate partners
and a fifth is followed by the suicide of the offender.

Hey Martin,

Can you not read?
I said " to bad the sorry fat ass slob MF Moore was not packing"

I did not say they should arrest the sorry MF because his idiot moron
body guard was packing without a permit at an airport.

They need to lock up his body guard, not the trud breath, super sized,
fat ass, low down, hunk of ****, un-American liar Moore, just the
idiot that give a **** if someone takes him out.
Sheeeeeze your as swift, as a Kerry supporter.

Joe

Yep, that's our Joe....If you don't like someone, murder em....If you
don't like their politics....Murder em.

Saddam had the same idea!

Only thing the guard did wrong was not have a licence to carry a
pistol in that state.
He declared it at checkin so was obviously unaware that he was in
breach.....Ya don't need to be smart to carry a gun.

Seems you need to look at national laws to cover this.
