An armed woman is a very dangerous person. One bows, kisses her hand, opens her doors, pulls out her chair, watches his language and generally does all things every woman loves.

oh, the rank-and-file graboids are emotive ovines, certainly; but I somehow rather suspect their overlords of ulterior motives.

either way, they remain the enemy.

The number of firearms required to satisfy the 'crime' market is minute, and these are supplied no matter what controls are instituted.

Good point. Of course, most people I know who favor gun controls just fear their neighbors going crazy. Some also fear militias.

Most people I know who favor gun control are already well on the road there. They tend to be paranoid, cowardly or control freaks. Oh, and Liberal,... so that means they are pretty much out of touch with reality to start with.

That information is so great that I only skimmed it. Still is shows how Britain's gun control has failed just about as miserably as it would be possible to do.

Inspector Greenwood has definitely done his homework. Unfortunately, facts seem to have little or no impact on the gun control fanatics.

Pre marriage, all women are dangerous, even if fun!

Post marriage, they’re deadly, armed or not.

You pay the price, you take your chances...

Thanks. I thought it was excellent myself, and that’s why I posted the entire article.

Women were considered to be on a pedestal. Now, they are wallowing in the mud with the men. They have come a long way. :0)

I do believe that this article is a fine example of the author's craft, and educates as well as amuses...

Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
