Using both hands. That's my kind of gun control. While on the subject, check CNN for story on the number of 'students'
(probably should read "student age" ) that have been killed recently in Chicago. Around 30 or 40. Way off the scale. But other jurisdictions refuse to report victim age group or other stats. In denial? Wonder what they've got to hide. Personally, I like the Richmond approach of the 1990's which lowered their murder rate considerably. The locals and Feds got together. Local law for mandatory 10 year sentence for crime committed with firearm. As some drug dealers were quoted as saying " what? me do 10 years? I'd be crazy to be caught with a gun." I guess its still working. and
worth a try. for other cities :-)

as a friend of mine said,
better to be tried by 12
than be carried by 6.

whoa!
maybe he would shooot only number 9 shot froma 410
fat chance of that, eh?
glad he's moved. but these kind of conflicts are likely to increase.

Does anyone on this blog know the law concerning carrying a pistol on my motorcycle, as I am allowed to in my car? Does my motorcycle constitute my "car" according to the law?

Yes it does.
