Wait until they find out that we also have preachers - lots of them - who carry.
On first read, it seems a pretty positive (about women shooting) article. No quotes from Not-really-million-Mom marchers or anything.

Yes, but I often get the feeling that they have a condescending attitude toward the "natives."

A couple of PETA droids. I think they are obsessive-compulsive.

Yes, the article is fairly positive -- but all three of the comments are caustic! I guess not many Bostonians have encountered a rattlesnake or had coyotes decimate their chicken flock.

Now, now Jim, that's true, but think positive --- this article is a big step towards reality for them...

Hmm. You should go over there and mix it up with them a bit. If I am not too sleepy after I finish here, I may go stir the pot myself.

You would be fighting a battle of wits with disarmed people, but they wouldn't know it.
