There are only two ways that a flaregun makes a good defensive weapon:
1. You also have a high-pressure hose connected to your fuel system and can first douse him/her/it with gas or diesel fuel. OR 2. You can shove the flaregun down his mouth before popping the cap. Just make sure if you choose (1) that you don't score an "own goal". -- -- Karl Denninger ) Internet Consultant & Kids Rights Activist http://www.denninger.net My home on the net - links to everything I do! http://scubaforum.org Your UNCENSORED place to talk about DIVING! http://www.spamcuda.net SPAM FREE mailboxes - FREE FOR A LIMITED TIME! http://genesis3.blogspot.com Musings Of A Sentient Mind In article , Doug Dotson wrote: And if you don't kill them (him, her, ?) then you might be dead.

What happened to GWB's power of veto? Hey, just because 60+% of the
country was against letting the ban expire, who cares, right?!? Cowbow up! -- Geoff "Doug Dotson" wrote in : My teenagers are not teenagers anymore. Not aware that they ever shot anyone at school.

GWB can only veto a bill that has been placed before him after
being passed by the House and the Senate. No one in Congress introduced legislation to renew the ban. I assumed that you are American and understand how our govenment operates. Sorry.

Automatic weapons have been illegal for years, and still are for the general
public. The term "assualt weapon" is poorly defined, and was just made up to ban a few rifles that "looked bad". GWB didn't do anything... the bill banning those "assualt weapons" hit it's sunset date, and ended without congress trying to re-enact it. At least they had some sense. Your misconceptions are just what the anti-gun lobby wants. Sorry you fell for it. -- Keith __ A 'good' return to your slip is one from which you can walk away.

Cowbow up! -- Geoff Nope, not even close. 60+% of those polled by the Brady Bunch were opposed, and Congress couldn't even get a major minority to support its reinactment. I got mine before the Ban went into effect, many years before....... Me |
