But I admit a thrill in shooting targets.<br />But I agree completely with you about guns in the house. I don't own one. The target practice was either my brothers or during my Air Force career. I always thought having a gun in a house with children is asking for a tragic accident. I also DON'T believe guns offer much personal protection.Bill Lislemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15187273560129198423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4556878706697309931.post-28480890901743096252011-03-31T18:36:18.446-04:002011-03-31T18:36:18.446-04:00You need to remember that I was a cop for 25 years...You need to remember that I was a cop for 25 years.

When the riots broke out in southern California in the early 90s the only folks that didn't get looted were the Korean shop keepers. They stood watch on the tops of their stores and they were armed. Everyone just passed them by. Yes people get shot all the time. Here it's the gang bangers who shoot innocents most of the time. I see your point, I just don't agree with it. We blame things too often when we should put the blame on the offender. Just my two cents.<br /><br />Have a terrific day,<br />SandeeSandeehttp://comedyplus.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4556878706697309931.post-8281759346168083862011-03-31T05:34:17.373-04:002011-03-31T05:34:17.373-04:00Daisy:

You sure were giving Harley a dirty look today!<br /><br />Sara,<br />I remember you banging the pans to try to get that bear to move along! I agree, out in the wilderness where you live, one would need a rifle. I doubt if this couple had the hand gun to protect them from the wildlife in Akron though. Poor people.<br /> <br />The PLAIN DEALER just had statistics about gun owners in the US and it said 49% of males own handguns! I was shocked. It's almost like the Old West!<br /><br />Empty Nester: Now, now, no name calling. Anyone can get angry and lose their temper. If a gun is handy when this happens, watch out. That's all I'm saying.<br /><br />Sandee, <br />I know it's people who actually kill, but giving them guns sure makes it easier. Maybe if I lived in a high crime area like you, I'd feel differently. It just seems like every day I read in the paper about someone getting shot.<br /><br />Ron Joe White,<br />Ron,<br />I hope your wife never shoots you too!<br /><br />As far as the comments go, I always respond by email if the commenter leaves an email for me. I seldom take the time to go back to look for responses to comments I leave unless I know that particular blogger responds that way like Kathy The Junk Drawer. It's fun to go back to that one because she gets so many comments and her responses are sometimes as funny as the original post!<br /><br />Beaded Tail,<br /><br />I see you agree with me.

I hope not :-)<br /><br />Your quiz?....Do you go back to check comments on posts a day or two after you leave one?<br /><br />I spend a lot of time every week returning comments. There are simple not enough hours in the week for me to go back. Although I do love to get email replies to my comments but sadly most bloggers don't respond back that way :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4556878706697309931.post-34595723370714863442011-03-30T12:11:16.552-04:002011-03-30T12:11:16.552-04:00Guns don't kill, people kill.

If you want someone dead you don't need a gun. How about a kitchen knife? People kill. Period.<br /><br />As for this couple? He had a hunk of cancer where his heart should be. Can't do much about that.<br /><br />Have a terrific day. :)Sandeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06785788498697004273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4556878706697309931.post-53294497944975316932011-03-30T11:18:02.510-04:002011-03-30T11:18:02.510-04:00I am not a fan of guns either.

Or perhaps he was just an awful man who has been mean for years. I don't know.<br /><br />We have guns. I stay away from them but we are out in the wilderness and as my encounter with a bear taught me last year, they have a place and purpose. It was only the sound of gunfire that got him to move along (we didn't hurt him or shoot at him) and nothing else worked and I tried EVERYTHING!<br /><br />I used to despise guns too and thought they all should be destroyed. I've learned there is a place for them.<br /><br />My heart goes out to this man's poor wife and to him as well if he was suffering due to dementia, etc.The Silver Age Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01135538968544231161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4556878706697309931.post-18332718921927166592011-03-30T07:49:45.676-04:002011-03-30T07:49:45.676-04:00What a tragedy!
