Guns and 6 year olds..... (in response to Jab1)

I would buy one, and I think you would see many people start carrying them for self-defense. My big concern with any electronics in a gun is the possibility of someone making up some device that jams all the guns withing a certain radius.

So in your example, I will assume they have a fail safe weapon with no battery problems. :slight_smile:

However, until the government turned in and destroyed all it’s lethal weapons, I would still support the right of the people to own guns.

What truly scares me about this tragedy is that this isn’t the case of a kid bringing his Dad’s gun in to show and tell and the gun accidentally firing. The six-year old in question threatened the other girl’s life, so it looks like he INTENDED to kill her. If it had not been a gun, maybe he would have done it with a knife.

Twenty one years ago, Halloween was just a movie. Now we have Michael Myers in the flesh. That truly scares me.

Jab: Couldn’t you order Ayoob’s “The Truth About Self Protection” from the local bookstore?

From other posts, I think Jab is on a serious budget. That is why he was looking for it in the library.

Hey Jab,

When my library doesn’t have it I use Barnes and Nobles :slight_smile: They have a better selection anyway. I skim through tons of books there that I would never get a chance to read if I had to buy them.

If you buy a coffee and cake, you can even feel justified :slight_smile:
