Scenario: ÊÊI have a gun in my car, you have a gun in your car... all God's chillin' got a gun in the car. Teen gang-banger starts bustin' caps at you for flashing your lights and you return fire equally bent on destruction. Some of your bullets hit their mark- some hit the car... others fly in my direction as i'm riding alongside the gangster car. Wondering why i'm suddenly being shot at by some dude being shot at by some dudes, i'm inspired to pull my own 45 cal. and bang off a few... so off go my bullets whizzing in and out of your automobile, in and out of gangster car and in and out of a few others on the road turning the highway into a snowballing capfest. ÊÊSince when does every bullet fired in anger or defense hit it's intended target? ÊÊGrow up... get over the power trip of carrying a gun and accept the fact that you're no Dirty F'n Harry and life isn't a vigilanty flick. Kev ======================================
Power trip? Maybe you live somewhere where you don't ever feel uncomfortable that your life could be in danger?

People every day in this country get robbed, raped, and murdered just going to buy a carton of milk at the corner store.
Your "Scenario" is basically a very unrealistic one. Oh sure, I've heard of the occasional shootouts on California highways some years back. I'd rather have a fighting chance, than let some POS crack head end my life, or a loved one's without any chance of rebuttal.
I say it's about time that this country get its head out of its butt, and take away a state's right to allow, or deny gun carry rights.
I say it's time to declare war on all the worthless waste of flesh in this country. It's time we stand up, and stand together. Maybe we all need to take a cur from Travis Bickle in "Taxi Driver".
The real shame of it is, you can't conceal carry a gun where you really need one. In all non-carry states it's the two legged animals you have to watch out for, not the four legged ones.
You never can say what can actually happen in a real life occurence.
Just watch something like Super Station WGN at 9, and the typical "poo" that happens every day in a city like Chicago.
It could be myself, or someone else one day, the "armed" good samaritan that saves you, and your loved one's life.
I'm just so sick of hearing about rotten worthless cocksuckers preying on innocent people, and destroying their lives. Mark
