Laura,
This is the "Packing Heat" thread and the topic will be debated for a while yet I'm sure. We differ on whether or not it's scab picking.
Mike
Then debate the topic. Both of your positions have been stated, and if there's any question, reviewing the ump-teen pages of rehash on those positions will drive the points home.
For the record, I don't agree with either position. I don't really care if someone carries or not. Even if I'm crapping my pants because I'm scared of the individual, you will NEVER see it. I am more scared of unprepared people in ANY situation, be it using snow gear properly or shooting warning shots into the air (the bullets have to come down SOMETIME).
You admitted to baiting Fuji on the other thread. You're doing the same here. I don't care how old you are (which is also a common question on all 3, yes 3!!!, boards. Baiting an argument is childish.
Move on.
