[QUOTE]Originally posted by First of Two: [QB] [QUOTE]I think you'll find that nobody is killed by a stray phaser blast in Trek. [/QUOTE]Riva's chorus. Sisko's wife. The Colonists on Cestus III. Any civilians the Borg assimilated. [QUOTE]Civillians have no phasers or any personal weapons. [/QUOTE]Even the pacifist who turned out to be a douwd had one, although it was non functional. Guinan had a rifle. Quark had access to weapons. [QUOTE] If someone that bought a handgun for protection from one of these "preadator" boogeymen you speak of gets really pissed at the guy that just flipped him off, he'll be much more likely to do something stupid if all he has to do is point and shoot.[/QUOTE]My brother and father have both displayed firearms to ward off "boogeymen" as you so foolishly call them. They exist. [QUOTE] The old adage of "if handguns are outlawed, only outlaws will have handguns" has been bandied about by the NRA for years while the inncoent bystander deathtoll has grown exponentially.[/QUOTE]An unabashed lie, "exponentially" is. It's not even going up. It's been going down for years. Moreso in places which encourage carry permits. [QUOTE] Explain your attitude to parents of kids that get shot at school by other kids showing off their guns. [/QUOTE]It's already illegal for kids to have guns. Adding a new law won't help. Most of those guns were obtained illegally in the first place. You probably don't know that since the handgun ban in England, handgun crime there has actually risen. Bad guys don't care about another law to break. Quit swallowing propaganda and start actually looking for facts. You may be surprised. [/QB][/QUOTE]
