I have been an owner and shooter since 1965. You may not like the things I post, but that's just too bad.

They call that fear.

So you aren't to be trusted to not open fire on someone either?

Yep, I'm afraid some idiot's going to lose his temper and shoot my wife in a bar some day. That's not irrational, it's just the way things are going.

I don't carry. I don't need to.

Next quibble, please.

The report says just the opposite. Did you read it? Or are facts an irrelevant nuisance to you?

But you're a self proclaimed gun owner (right, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt) so, in my opinion and using nothing but my emotional response to you, feel that you are dangerous.

Maybe you should crawl in bed and pull the covers over your head.

You are right. Happens all the time in Detroit. Shootings over spilled Kool-Aid, potato chips, shoes, Facebook beefs, random drive by's ... you just never know.
