Scuba Forum / General / February 2008One of the best links I've seen for understanding guns.
On several occasions, we've pointed out that almost everything that's been said against guns comes directly from those most ignorant and fearful of them. What we have not done very well, until now, is direct those that are ignorant to information that can help them understand and see the error of their ways. For those that would cure their ignorance, here's a good place to do it. This website is designed primarily for women, but, in most respects is excellent for men or women that would like to know more and understand better. Perhaps it will change your mind. Perhaps it won't. Either way, you'll come away with more knowledge and a better understanding and that's a step in the right direction. I encourage everyone, gun lover or hater, believer or not, to take a look. http://www.corneredcat.com/ Lee > On several occasions, we've pointed out that almost everything that's been None of us give a sh.t.

In the meantime, I had just heard this one yesterday and got a chuckle out of it: "Guns don't kill people, people kill people, ...and monkeys do too (if they have a gun)." - Eddie Izzard Now the semi-OT part of this is a NEDesque challenge: adapt this joke to a traditional Scuba mantra. -hh > > > On several occasions, we've pointed out that almost everything that's been > > > None of us give a sh.t.

If I do so lapse, please correct me. On Feb 6, 8:47 am, "Lee Bell" <pleeb...@bellsouth.net> wrote: > On several occasions, we've pointed out that almost everything that's been None of us give a sh.t.

My creepy attacker apparently didn't feel he needed one; he had size and strength on his side. That's why my very personal opinion is that gun control sucks."  Signature"To ban guns because criminals use them is to tell the innocent and law-abiding that their rights and liberties depend not on their own conduct, but on the conduct of the guilty and the lawless, and that the law will permit them to have only such rights and liberties as the lawless will allow... For society does not control crime, ever, by forcing the law-abiding to accommodate themselves to the expected behavior of criminals.
