Re: handguns

"Don't need them. Chicago has a professional police force."

Obviously the mayor's buddies and the aldermen "agree" (wink).

The consideration in an apartment is the neighbors. A shotgun will generally not go through the next wall. It will go through the next perp.

Pistol slugs are more likely to hurt a neighbor in an apartment setting. If a person is experienced with a handgun, they can probably use the handgun wisely enough to avoid hurting the neighbors. Course things get pretty dicey when you're under fire.

The shotgun is also easier for a nervous individual to point in a tense situation. The little lady can point it in the right direction and pull the trigger, without fear of missing.

As our so called leaders continue to hold open the door for millions of illegal aliens with one hand, while writing new gun laws, in an attempt to disarm legal, law abiding citizens, with the other hand.

Joe, I suspect that if people put up articles on recipes, you'd work in an illegal alien quote.

Is there something you disagree with here?

Both the issues that I mentioned, have a direct relationship with the security of our nation, and the security and safety of our American citizens.

I will leave the cooking recipes up to you.
