FURTHER UPDATE: OK, what if I bought the gun to deter burglars and the car to run over people with. Does that change anything. In your view, I'm not entitled to be equally (legally) prepared to protect my home and family. The crook always gets the advantage, he can always get a gun, and I get characterized as a psycho. How come? UPDATE: gmand, given the number of deaths caused by auto crashes each year, are all car owners also potential psychos, as if wanting to own one wasn't a pretty big tip-off? ORIGINAL COMMENT 1/9/05: And a major Remington plant is in her state. Thanks for helping NY hang on to its eroding manufacturing base, hypocrite. Oh, standing on principle, I see.
