That's not true. Being an advocate of stronger gun control laws is not the same as wanting all guns banned. Gabrielle Giffords, who was shot in the head, always supported gun control and she and her husband own guns. Big difference between supporting the right to bear arms, which is defending the Constitution, and asking for background checks. This thread isn't about buying military style assault weapons and ammunition online, so I won't elaborate.

ammonia doesnt affect the dogs sense of smell, peppery spray does. ammonia causes permanent damage, which you could be liable for, pepper spray doesnt. ammonia doesnt cause immediate pain, pepper spray does. pepper spray is much more effective against ll animals, including bears.

Police: Man said enraged motorist chased him 15 miles - CNN.com

The last time I called the police (and never again) was much like this. Some guy was driving like a maniac, cutting in and out of traffic and almost hitting people. It was the first and last time I ever called on someone like that. They didn't care. They put me on hold, transferred me from town to town to town, never once asked for a description or a license plate. Then the guy literally ran a car off the road and sped out of my view, and I hung up. Completely worthless. Oh yeah, and later I tried to get the state to run the plate number and they told me I had to pay a ton of money if I wanted to do that. If you live in a free state do yourself a favor and just buy a gun for protection.
Get really.The police are shown daily chasing some nut job and entering where civilian run from. you expect to call on traffic and they transport themselves to the scene by magic.. Of course taxpayers do not want man power to run license plates for your interest and tying up computers.
