With defensive, proper, non-police uses of guns, and these are mostly of handguns because of their portability (a long arm you bear, a pistol you wear) running at about two and a half million annually -- mostly without a shot being fired -- Spexx's views are dangerously behind the curve and can get Spexx or his loved ones killed much more easily than, say, my views on the matter.

There is a LOT here that you simply don't know, Spexx. I can recommend you a reading list that will at least allow you to speak intelligently.

Where urb errs here is that he thinks he knows what Spexx thinks.
