The strange thing is, the places where I would want to carry a gun, prohibit it. Supposedly you can carry in the national parks now, which presumably includes the Everglades wilderness areas. The south end of Cayo Costa has a wild boar issue but I don't know what the rules are out there. If nothing else you'd probably get the PETA people on your case if you shot one in self defense. The state has a pretty active trapping effort to get the wild hogs knocked down. They are pretty thick everywhere around here. My wife used to see them when she was jogging in the scrub park at the end of our street. We have had them in the neighborhood. They are not particularly aggressive. They are basically domestic hogs that got loose. We have just about everything living in that buffer though. There are deer, black bear and occasionally a panther out there. The state really owns the whole shore line of the Estero Bay,back a mile or so with the exception of Weeks, a few places that have docks poking out through the mangroves and the back side of the developed barrier islands. That is a lot of square miles to hide in. If you've ever been in pig habitat, it is downright spooky. They can eviscerate you, and they take substantial firepower to kill. Usually several shots, as one only ****es them off. They are smart, and know their territory like the back of their hoof. Becoming quite a problem, even in neighborhoods like yours where not long ago if you brought up the subject, you would lose friends and credibility. Steve |

In some states, there are ways around the "validation" because of the gun show loophole, which must be closed. Why? The 1st amendment isn't limited to those who pass a background check? The validation process isn't stringent enough if card carrying loonies like Krause can get themselves validated. But sadly, closing the gun show loophole won't prevent professional murderers and other armed crime doers from obtaining the tools of their trade. If we stopped law abiding citizens from owning guns then it will just be the criminals and government with guns. Ya but I don't want every Tom Dick and "Harry" running around waving guns. I didn't say we should prevent sane, responsible people from owning guns. Pssssssssssst! You! Yeah, YOU! In case you didn't notice, right now, every Tom, Dick, and Harry (Or Jose, Raul and Tyrone) are running around "waving guns" AND shooting them a lot, too. Fear and death dominate a lot of streets in America right now. So, why the focus on people who buy and own guns legally, even though they may not be totally qualified to do so? Any guy can buy a gun on the street, and not know the first thing about it. Taking guns away from citizens is only the first step in total government control. After that, there's a shoot to kill order for anyone with a gun. Which will decrease but not eliminate criminals with guns. If all guns magically disappeared tomorrow, humanity would then go to knives, baseball bats, tree limbs, or whatever. But not to worry. Big Purple Lips would create a government beaurocracy to study it for five years and deal with it, just like they've solved every other problem they've undertaken. HTH Steve |

Pol Pot should have replaced Charleton Heston. He'd have had half the professors and doctors round up by now. |

If Obama wasn't part of the problem, the first thing he would have done as president was reverse all of what Bush did. I missed that part. well let's see...did he suspend habeas corpus? nope. bush did. did he extend unemployment benefits that the GOP wanted to cut off? yep. did he start to re-impose banking regulations that the GOP gutted? yep. did he fire the general bush had running the afghan war? yep. yeah you're right. no changes at all. Evidently he thought the Bush policies about your privacy were OK, Clinton wasn't much of a privacy advocate either. It was during his administration where they decided it was OK to spy on you from the air with IR cameras. "Carnivore" (where they scan everything you type on the net) was a Clinton era program too. fine. when obama suspends habeas corpus you let me know |
