Hey, actually you'd have have to be pretty damn clever to exist in a vacuum, there not being any air and all...

Nothing wrong with guns on planes. For many decades commercial airlines allowed people to carry their hunting rifles and such aboard, with little to no security issues.
The hijackers wouldn't have even tried it... even if they had guns, they would have not had as many people as the citizens.
Notice these things always happen in places where guns are banned-- one teacher who was armed could have stopped columbine. In fact, if the sheriff had gone in, rather than staying outside letting it happen, columbine could have been stopped.
You guys who think more guns cause more crime are the morons-- every study I've ever heard of shows the reverse is true.
AS states adopt concealed carry laws, the crime rate goes down. The more guns in an area in the hands of private citizens, the lower the crime rate.
Cops, who do carry guns, only show up after the fact, and are thus useless in preventing crime, unless they happen to be there by chance.
Think about it for a second! Every citizen in this country can get their hands on guns, but you don't see shootouts on the freeways....
"Right wing nuts" (Eg: people who believe in HUMAN RIGHTS) are not the ones creating the situation where those few people who are criminals can have easy pickings--leading to more crime.
Self defense is a basic human right. When you argue to take it away, you are arguing against human rights, and ultimately, if you bann guns totally like you left wing idiots did in Britian, you have skyrocketing crime! Not less.
Look at what's happened in britian.
Yeah, and you guys panned the ipod too: http://apple.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=01/10/23
I think you do have a legal right if they do it in public. No different than a cover bar/band paying ASCAP royalties...
Trouble making decisions? Just flip for it.
I'm sorry you wasted your time replying to the AC, who obviously doesn't even know what a troll is.
