[QUOTE]Originally posted by Sol System: [QB] Just in case things are getting too heated, let me remind you that I think you're a nice guy, First. Honest! Now, the hating can continue. [IMG]http://flare.solareclipse.net/wink.gif[/IMG] You still aren't making much of a case for the right to purchase a gun immediately, no questions asked. Look, if I'm in a bad situation and aware of it, then I need to take whatever steps I feel necessary. (The first of which should be to notify the police, but why do that when I might get the chance to shoot somebody? And yes, that was meant to be humorous, and yes I'm aware that confidence in The Law is by no means universal nor universally justified. Though with such a view I wonder what keeps us from simply taking the anarchist argument to heart.) But if whatever bad thing that is going to occur occurs with no prior warning, then being able to purchase a gun in five minutes will do me about as much good as being able to hum the entire score to "H.M.S. Pinafore" backwards and in perfect pitch. Besides, if my first exposure to a gun is when I buy it because a shady figure is following me down the street, I'm going to be more dangerous to myself than the bad guy. [/QB][/QUOTE]
