Richard, I know of someone who holds a handgun carry permit and was asked for help by the police. In doing so, I suggest, he was part of the well-regulated militia that the Constitution calls for.

But, I agree, arguing about it is a ridiculous waste of time, so I wish those who disagree with me would stop arguing smile

Jim, we here in the U.S. are a strange lot, that's for sure. Learning about our problems and issues is difficult because it's hard to separate facts from agendas, again, there is the "lies, damned lies, and statistics" quote from one of our most famous and influential authors, Mark Twain.

Here's a good site, it deals plainly in facts, folks there have taken pains to insure that facts are not "slanted" to support opinions. It's a very interesting window into the U.S. experience:

Enjoy.

To the two of you, and to all, so long for now and thanks for all the fun. May God bless you and may you argue well and civilly all your days.

You've got to know your limitations. I don't know what your limitations are. I found out what mine were when I was twelve. I found out that there weren't too many limitations, if I did it my way. -Johnny Cash
