RE: Guns on the digest!

Hey MURF!   Where did you get the bright idea to use a car list to advance
your political agenda?

Pllllleeeeaaaassseee!!!  Where do you think?  Since this urban legend
thread
started, there have been at least a half dozen references to guns,
including
editorializing about how bad gun control laws are.  Come on, don't you
macho-
boys know that guns aren't discussed in polite, mixxed (in many ways)
company?
     I've said before, if we can't mention Hondas for fear of offending
someone, why do people think gun-talk is OK?
     As for your second ammendment references, are you a member of a well
regulated militia?  Actually, I support gun ownership, like the Swiss do
it: a
rifle, locked in your home; not "Guns for everyone! Starting at $10.!"
After
all, I don't trust the government as far as I can throw it.
     Next, if there were less guns floating around, the police might be
willing
to do their job and protect us, instead of giving us speeding tickets.  If
you
were a cop, would you rather chase: gun-toting criminals, or radar
detector-toting
speeders?
     Also, you seem to be espousing the strict constitutionalist
interpretation
of the constitution.  If we all applied this kind of "logic", women
wouldn't be
voting yet, only land-owning white men, and we would still have legal black

slaves, etc.  Times change; Yahoos should too!                    Murf
