Which question?

You do not unterstand, stranger! It's their president ! dudeist skydiver # 3105

JohnRich, no need to enter into detailled answer. Simply that: I slightly understand if you live with weapons, they become a part of your life. So, I ask you to simply understand: If I (or we) use to live w/o weapons, they are not a part of our daily life! Mr. Normal living around next corner is not breaking his head, if he's allowed to own a gun or not , if he will make it trough the new day without a hand gun, if he will go to bed at night, needing his colt be placed under the pillow. He simply goes to bed. And yes, JohnRich, I am allowed to own weapons as I am a hunter. But the best is, I live w/o fears, w/o my colt parked on my right hip. If one day I would be forced to give them up, I would do without any tears in my eyes. The gun itself means nothing to me. All my beloved folks around me do not own guns. I do not need to protect them with mine. I use mine to kill animals. If you feel there is a lack of knowledge on that matter - if this is in history or actually- in my side: I.Really.Do.Not.Mind! Why the hell should I? Based on that, I'd like to say it's better to leave it just like that. You will not convice me and vice-versa. That's the basic evil. That point will need another 50 years to be solved. (And how I enjoy my new three-barrelled gun! Hand made silver mounting, sooo good looking, that toy!) dudeist skydiver # 3105

Riots? You talk about Frankfurt? You talk about which century? dudeist skydiver # 3105

No. As I do not expect such an event daily. And Yes Just as a proposal: Change laws. For the armed attackers, it will be much harder to reach out for guns. And your life will be a little bit easier. And after 50 years, your grand-grand-..(don't know if you're 25 or 55)...son will be able to leave his home just controlling if he's got his keys in his jeans and not, if he forgot the bullets for his .38 special.. It always starts in the beginning. (This is not my discovery).

No. Much better to have strict gun control. dudeist skydiver # 3105

OK. Your crap. And your peaceful day latest will end that moment, when the brother of the attacker which you shot down, finds you to shoot you down for revenge.... That are the circles I mentioned when throwing a stone into peaceful water. I wouldn't go to NYC or any other city that bans me from protecting myself. Besides, they are doing a corporate/sanitizing makeover of NYC that is robbing it of all character it ever had. The place SUCKS now. Did you read that they are replacing ALL of the newsstands with homogenized ones that will be owned by one big company? The owners who have had newsstands in their families for decades will now have to rent from this megacorp. Just because the city wants more money: the new stands will have advertising plastered all over them. (The newsies are suing the city for a 1st Amendment violation, stating that they are being forced to associate with advertisers they do not agree with.) That, and the Disneyification of Times Square/42nd Street... make me want to puke. Could it be you feel a little anger? Unfortunately, your reply is not helping me for 2cents, is not answerting my simple question. As I do not want to puke on Times Square's concret.... dudeist skydiver # 3105

No. That was you. How about if the DMV spelled your name wrong on your license? Or the hospital spelled your kid's name wrong on a birth certificate? What if your mail got sent to 125 Smyth St. instead of your house at 125 Smith St.? The simple fact is, THERE IS ONE CORRECT NAME AND INFINITE INCORRECT NAMES for all of these things! IT IS NOT HARD TO JUST LEARN THE RIGHT SPELLING OF THE NAME AND USE THAT! What could possibly be the argument for it being okay to spell "Iraqi" as "Iraki," "Iraqui," or "Iracqui"??! Is it EASIER?! All you're doing is making excuses for not learning something. *** Me?

He's a similar news story and situation, with a different outcome: * * * Troy Jennings, 46, had gotten into an argument with a woman he previously lived with, Judith Carr, on Tuesday night... During the argument, Jennings managed to break the steering column on Carr’s Ford Expedition, but Carr called her 20-year-old son Donald to pick her up. Carr received threatening phone calls at her mobile home throughout the night from Jennings, and around 8 a.m. Wednesday morning, Jennings rammed his GMC pickup into the bedroom area of the home. Jennings then grabbed a hammer from inside his truck and shattered the window into Carr’s bedroom. Carr ran from the room, and at the same time, her son Donald ran in and shot Jennings twice with a 22-caliber rifle. * * * Without that gun in the home, Judith Carr could have been murdered by having her head smashed in with a hammer. And even though the attack happened by surprise, a homeowner had time to retrieve his gun and use it in lawful self-defense, probably saving his Mom's life. The question for you is; would you have preferred that this lady and her son been unarmed inside their home, facing an angry, vengeful man with a hammer? John, John, John... why did they need a GUN? Why couldn't they have gone hammer-to-hammer with the attacker? That way, they could be assured that no stray shots would kill any innocent bystanders, and any kids who might have randomly entered the household could not manage to kill themselves with a hammer. Plus, something tells me that Judith did not do all she could have done to calm Jennings down from his rage. Sometimes a soothing, understanding tone can work wonders on the criminally, violently insane... Plus, I don't think Judith had exhausted her options of going back in time and making sure that Jennings had had good employment, proper health care, and that society had provided a good environment for him to grow up in... Hi PJ, that answer is so well put into words. Carefully thought out. With this post, you finally will get them: All those silly Europeans living in permanent danger, suffering under strict gun-control laws. ROFLMAO (how I do love those abbreviations) dudeist skydiver # 3105

After reading all that posts of gun-friends explaining why owning weapons is so important, just let me express my deepest thanks to the Big Chief that I live in

You're especting too much, really! Go back home and ask your Tasmanian Marsupal (? sp?) what he thinks about that opinion? He will guzzle you. Furthermore, it is so easy to understand different wordings like f. e. Irak, Iraq, Iraque! What does it mean in fact? You know what I'm talking about. It's different in biz. That's right. That's what makes the world turn: Various languages including their clerical errors. dudeist skydiver # 3105

That's where you will find me, Senor! dudeist skydiver # 3105

Oh dear, how I love to laugh .... JohnRich, it's up to you now! I will give my very best to not reply on such a rare gun thread! dudeist skydiver # 3105

Do not take it too serious, guy. You are not a fool. You surely know where to draw a line and when words just "sound" ridiculous. And yes, I know when disputes are starting to become hot. It's always mutual. Look forward to present thread! Night. dudeist skydiver # 3105

That statement is absolutely true. I sign that. Would like to hear that story. Simply: All of us used to live a life w/o a permant thinking of being in danger. In my hometown (and that's a town with 1 million, for US circumstances probably a village) I go out, no need to arm myself! That's too imbecile to imagine! But, Senor, if "you" just grow up with that? With weapons around you? For you it must be fully normal, right? Fully normal to consider that just the next person behind next corner could be your killer What an imagination! Pure horror. dudeist skydiver # 3105

Wow! That deserves to be printed in big fat letters A pleasure to read.

In VV pics? OMG dudeist skydiver # 3105

Hi Faber, lost you suddenly, somewhere... You suffered the same? I hate skydiving tattoos, this is my 2nd one Christel dudeist skydiver # 3105

Which jeans? I always enjoyed reading your posts, really! dudeist skydiver # 3105

Could it be that you're travelling a lot in your small country?

. Would that please you? No joke, sorry: My right leg is exactly looking the same like yours (and still a lot of metal in it). Not even 4 months ago, working, but: not skydiving Heads up, smile and heal quick! dudeist skydiver # 3105

That is really one convincing explanation to me. Now I understand. dudeist skydiver # 3105

Me? Never. As weapons are not part of my daily life: No importance on that! You! I think so, dear JohnRich! If I am wrong, sorry ! dudeist skydiver # 3105

Hey, just take your time and read to what I referred, guy! Basically, it's exactly what you are requesting, right? Not more, not less. I simply confirmed to the original poster that, anyhow, it is a MUST to know basics. Such like switching on the AAD ... that's what I learned during my AFF education, that's what I never forgot, that's what I would recommend every "young" jumper to never forget... Are you complaining to something? Aren't we talking about the same? dudeist skydiver # 3105

What's that JohnRich? Forgot about your weapons? New hobby called sex... err, ... sorry, statistics? Fine. dudeist skydiver # 3105
