More of an observation than a "reply", however if I may:

jimpeel closed a post with the following. "Three thousand people died on Sept. 11 because eight pilots were killed"
-- former Northwest Airlines pilot Stephen Luckey

The really sad aspect of that simple fact is the following. Under previously existing government regulations, those 8 pilots would have been armed, correct me should I be in error. Had those 8 pilots been armed, the results had, at days end, might have been markedly different.

Re the endless caterwauling of The Anti Gun Nuts, this is something for all to think on. People of good will being armed, can and does save lives, an ability or predilection that Gun Control has yet to demonstrate.
