Gun totin lunatics? Ever heard of the concept of irrational generalizations 'berto? Just a guess, but I'd reckon the percentage of homeowners havin a gun in their home is problee like 60-70%, but the percentage of those legally empowered to carry a weapon is likely less than 30%, and .... since the "right to carry" concealed weapons law and the licenses began being issued a few years back, if you're found in public with a weapon there's a nearly ZERO tolearnce policy in place if you DON'T have a permit to carry it.

A buddy of mine in Georgia recently related an interesting tale about the town he lives in REQUIRING every citizen to own a gun by way of a city ordinance. Anyway, several years back a guy had kidnapped a woman in Florida and just happened to stop for gas in my buddys home town.

Two other customers having seen his pic on Tv and a description of his car confronted him when he came out after payin for his gas. He tried to draw his weapon on 'em but was a bit slow as they both pulled out their guns and filled him full of holes. When the dust settled they popped the trunk to find the woman inside and luckily still alive.

Though I've never had to even draw a weapon on anyone, and hope I never do, if someone breaks into my business or my home I can't see how they can expect any mercy, and they're not likley to get any either
