Thanks guys, but I am on a pension and leaving is not financially viable right now. Just read that a 7 year old girl shot her 6 year old brother in the head with a 45 pistol. Charged the owner with criminal negligence causing death. The laws about storage is a good one, but the anti gun people will just add this to their arsenal here. I believe that enough of us have refused to register and it will fail in the near future. 1 billion dollars would put a whole lot more police on the streets. Now-- florida would be real nice right now---its -20 celsius here. Have a good one fellas.

I'm reminded of many years ago before "55" When a alcohol influenced neighbor Knocked on my back door after midnight, Loudly cursing my wife for some thing that he thought that she told to his wife about him.
He was a violent man of such character as to brutally beat many lesser men in bar room brawls when they disagreed with him. I myself was combat trained and well able to give him more than he wanted, but there was an easier and more permanent way to settle it. I simply walked to the door with "Phoenix", pushed the door open with my foot and chambered a round as he stood there with his eyeballs fixed on the end of the barrel. On my command "You stupid SOB get your a** off my property, NOW !! He left without speaking, and never had any occasion to raise any more of that kind of crap in the future. The shock of having a neighbor who would not allow him to be the block bully sobered him up and he soon became a very good neighbor. Had I chosen to bust his butt he would have gone on as usual. As a final statement some years later he introduced me to some of his visitors as "The Only Man Who Ever Called Him A SOB and made him think that IT was the Nicest Thing that I Could Say". Yes a firearm can be very effective just to have provided that the others know that you will not hesitate to protect yourself and those around you ! It is true, an armed Citizen is the only effewctive Law until the police arrive, and can serve the public need when called upon to protect the rights of himself and other neighbors. ViggoG |

Hermit,
Sorry it's so miserable up there. Down here in Florida it was 70 degrees F. today, but our furnace was working fine so we weren't cold. I went shooting in my shirtsleeves. Great public range about 5 miles away with guys shooting pistols and dreaded assault rifles. Pretty tough life, but someone has to do it and it might as well be me. I thank the Lord for everything.
