Man is a violent animal. Mayhem and murder is as natural as kindness and
altruism. The surprising thing is that some think it can be changed. OzOne wrote in message ... Before proper gun control is instituted.....or are you really that afraid of everything? Oz1...of the 3 twins. I welcome you to crackerbox palace, We've brder een expecting you. |

Yes, but why make it easy to kill...all it takes is a little anger and
a twitch of a finger. or you could just steer your car a little to the side. Automobiles are much more dangerous and kill far more people then guns do, should they be illegal. The number cause of death in the U.S. is heart disease. This is caused form to much fast food, to much time in front of the t.v. and to many smokers but are these things illegal? Of course not, is is the peoples responsibility to look after their own health but constant streams of fast food ads and t.v. shows make it "easier" to kill yourself slowly over the years from the products these companies make. If you are so concerned about lives here in the U.S. why not advocate forced regulation on peoples diets? That would help a lot more people. |

Is that all it takes for you to kill? Joe I never have, hopefully never will. I've been in dozens of situations where, If I lived in the US and was armed, I would have been perfectly justified in shooting my attacker. I was thankfully not armed and as such took a beating once or twice but didn't take a life. On other occassions I was armed, but my training in the use of that arm (draw your weapon only when you intend to shoot someone dead) allowed me to think and persue other means. Gun owners in the US do not have that training.... Man you are lost OZ. http://www.txdps.state.tx.us/adminis...eciprocity.htm Joe Oz1...of the 3 twins.

Texas must be a really scary place with all those concealed handguns,
and the percieved need to have one. How about Washington D.C. Increadibly high crime rate, no guns allowed at all. Virginia has a much lower violent crime rate. They are right next to each other but virginia has a right to carry statute meaning it is easy to get aconcealed weapons permit. States with right to carry laws have lower crime rates than those without. This may be due to other factors but the fact remains that those states are safer than the ones that are more restrictive of gun ownership and carry. States with Right To Carry laws have lower violent crime rates. On average, they have a 24% lower total violent crime rate, a 19% lower homicide rate, a 39% lower robbery rate, and a 19% lower aggravated assault rate, compared to other states and the District of Columbia. The nine states with the lowest violent crime rates are all Right To Carry states. (Data: FBI)" http://www.guncite.com/gun_control_rtcstates.html |

Your brains are as soft as puppy ****! The very site you quoted was actually showing that the math used in NRA's "analysis" was completely bogus! The alleged "24% lower total violent crime" is only 8%, and in fact the "may issue" states really had 13% lower homicide rate than the "shall issue" states. (Personally, I don't have much faith in the "violent crime" statistics, because the meaning of "assault" it highly variable. Murder, on the other hand, is pretty specific.) As for comparing DC to Virginia, that's a pretty stupid comparison. DC is almost entirely inner city, with no political connection to the surrounding burbs. VA is a large state, with a large suburban and rural population. However, how do they really stack up? DC has a very high murder rate, 35 per 100,000 according to the 2005 FBI numbers. But what about Richmond, VA? They were much higher with 43 per 100,000! So much for your theories! |

I welcome you to crackerbox palace, We've been expecting you. If you carry the weapon in plain view then you need no permit. You can walk anywhere in the USA with a gun Like a rifle rack in a truck back window, or fancy leather holsters that all the cow pokes can see. Concealed is a bit different and you have to go through training and a bkgd check. Clint wishes he was from Texas..he's a Californian. Joe |
