    None, but I could give you plenty of examples from throughout history. The point is, a government needs its people to keep it in check, and without a means to defend themselves, they are unable to do so.

    I'm sorry that you're the type of person that would rather give up everything they love rather than fight and die for it.

    With that kind of logic, I shouldn't protect myself from life-threatening diseases, because I haven't had one yet.

    And you know what? Kids like guns, even before video game consoles. Even if this kid wouldn't have played Wii she probably would have grabbed it

    I thought about my nephew and niece when I read this. To them, their father is the coolest guy in the world. If they saw him carrying this weapon in an attempt to scare off "prowlers," grabbing it and imitating him would be the first thing they'd want to do as soon as it was set down.

    To be honest though, an educated individual would probably not use a weapon lacking a safety for home defense and would not leave a loaded weapon in reach of a child.

    If you own and use a gun without a safety and have kids around, you need to replace that weapon immediately.

    For one, because Silverlight makes writing web-apps much easier.
