[QUOTE]Originally posted by JeffKardde: [QB] Yeah, I do think thats where he gets 'em from. Does anyone know how old Omega is? I'm thinking he's a 12-year old kid. Guess what, Omega: there was an armed COP at Columbine, and he didn't even HIT the two kids who did that awful deed. That's right: he had a gun, he didn't have a trigger lock, and FAT LOT OF GOOD HE DID. I suppose you'd've liked it if every kid at Columbine had been armed. I can see the hallways now, with kids shooting each other trying to hit the two badguys. Sheeeesh. I know! Maybe the teachers should have guns too! You know what, maybe we should arm all house pets too, would you like that? Omega, hundreds of children are killed every year because of handguns. It's sad. It's also sad you think that the death of a child is a worthy sacrifice for people to carry a killing machine with them. One day, you'll realize this for yourself. I used to think everyone should be allowed to carry a gun, too. You wanna know what happened? I grew up. Hey, maybe its just that I'm blessed to live in an area where I'm not in danger. Keep in mind: I live in Towson, MD, just north of BALTIMORE, and near Washington, DC. Keep in mind, D.C. used to be known as the murder capital of the world, and Baltimore has the 3rd highest murder rate in the U.S.! So what does that mean? I'm probably in more danger than you are, living where I am, but I don't feel the need to carry a gun. Why is that, I wonder? I don't have a death wish. Maybe it just means that carrying a gun isn't an answer. If you depend on a gun to "protect" yourself, how can you have a life? Do you look over your shoulder every five minutes expecting to see someone with an AK-47 aiming it at you? Oh, I know, Little Jimmy wants to pick your pocket. Go on, shoot him. Hypothetical situation, Omega: You're licensed to carry a gun, and you're coming out of a supermarket. You walk to your car, and someone surprised you, aiming a gun at you. "GIVE ME YOUR MONEY!" he demands. WHAT DO YOU DO? [/QB][/QUOTE]
