I would also venture to guess that 50%+ of this boards members would also die since many motorcycle riders are also gun owners. Decided to test this theory on a poll... http://www.twowheelfix.com/showthread.php?t=11006

nah, so if you bust into my house you get the satisfaction of knowing you killed a completely unarmed person. if that doesn't just swell your penis, nothing will.

wrong...........people kill people............guns are a tool, if not a gun, a hammer, if not a hammer a knife.........
and yeah gun owners do have the right to use them, to protect home and family. i guess it's better to cower in the closet and be at the mercy of the bad guys. no thanks.

Im not anti-gun but I have noticed the inflated ego that it seems many gun carriers have. It also seems to create some false sense of security as if simply having a gun in your possession will protect you from danger. Anytime a story about crime is posted somebody inevitable chimes in with "If he had a gun...."

Its not a guarentee that a gun will help you....it just offers you options. I dont rely on a gun to keep me safe, just like I don't rely on medical insurance to keep me healthy. Both are something I hope I NEVER have to use but are there to give me options when their are none left.
I do not like the thought of being helpless. And I would say a gun does in no way effect my ego. I think big ego people may be drawn towards guns, verses guns giving people egos. After the VT shootings, my entire outlook on firearms has changed. That and the shooting of our local Karioke guy at a bar I frequent cause some loon had the hots for his wife and walked in the bar and killed him. Random things happen and I want to give my self any chance I can if they do.

The danger gun like'r's and non Gun like'r pose to one another is in legislation.
Non gun like'rs come up with gun laws and gun like'rs try and interfere with states rights concerning gun laws. Personally, I don't like the idea of government telling me what I can and cannot buy. I'm not into this whole paranoia business that gets pushed. |

The people who claim to be the least "threat" somehow always seem to do the most damage to the "masses" with their mouth (their "weapon/tool of choice)
