Spexxvet Makes some feel uncomfortable Join Date: Dec 2005 Posts: 10,346	I just want to go on record that the pro-killing, uh, I mean the "guns for everyone" advocates have made two good points, IMHO. First - Griff's "even playing field for women" point. Second - Bruce's "if they don't have a gun they're more likely to just bash in your head before they even ask for your wallet" point. I'd still like to see many, many fewer handguns on the streets. See, I'm not a closed-minded conservative! __________________ "I'm certainly free, nay compelled, to spread the gospel of Spex.

That's why I carry concealed. You'll never see it. Even if you are a specs vet.
