I see! That's brilliant. So in your opinion, each of us should decide which laws are stupid and disregard them. Right? Or are you the only one who knows which laws are stupid? Which laws that carry serious penalties for breaking them do you break?

Actually, disregarding STUPID laws is done all the time. Sometimes the government goes too far and sometimes it is the job of the citizen to let the government know it. I ignore the local gun laws and would shoot an intruder in my house when the law says I must retreat from my own house.

God bless this man. Ignoring a stupid gun law probably saved his child's life.

I think the poor guy would probably be welcome here in Arkansaw, along with all us other toothless, barefoot, subpar yokels who were stupid enough to get Bill Clinton out of the state by pushing him for president.

I'd swap Clinton for the shooter from Jamaica any day. Enjoy the present, New York!

Right you are. I installed a new dishwasher in my kitchen over the weekend. Cut custom drain lines, airtraps, a GFI switch and solid core wire for power, stainless lines for hot water. Runs like a champ, doesn't leak a drop, and is a damn sight more quiet than the 20 year old chunk of junk sitting on the curb awaiting collection.

$250 to have a licensed plumber install it and another $35 for proper paper work to ensure it meets building codes and the proper permits filed. All of that ignored.

I guess that makes me a criminal.

On top of that, I don't go anywhere without my Taurus 92. No permit beyond the Second Amendment and no extra training on top of 25 years of shooting experience with 6 years of that in the Marines. I'm better qualified to carry than any cop I've ever met. Although I haven't met every cop out there.

Twice a criminal.

Oh... I own a couple books on the "banned" list.

Darn. I guess that there would be enough to put me away for about 20 years.

Live free or Die.
