You could argue that if they were truely free, including free from fear of attack, they would have no need to own a gun and it would be a lot safer for them. Two thirds of all gun deaths in the period 1989-1998 in the USA were accidents or suicide.

Well

We'll have to agree to disagree on this one, Mr. Greenman! But are you proposing that suicide is not a human right? If I so choose to end my life, I believe that it is, after all, mine to end. But that's a tangent, really, and IMNSHO has littel to do with the issue at hand. Let me just leave you with a trenchant observation from the founder of the modern "gun control" movement in the West: This year will go down in history. For the first time, a civilized nation has full gun registration. Our streets will be safer, our police more efficient, and the world will follow our lead into the future. -- Adolf Hitler, 1935 Abeit macht frei, indeed! Be well, Dave H.

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
