Hello Brian....nice approach. We in Arizona are very fortunate to have a
balanced attitude toward firearms and their application in the great
outdoor. Have no grudge toward any I might encounter on the trails and if I
happen to be packing, as is usual away from the urban areas, would hope all
would remember that. Somehow I perceived the overstatements in the humorous
light that I would hope they were intended.
Sorry about the grim encounter couple days back. Christmas should be a
joyous time...we owe it to the kids. I'm back to the sidelines!

I agree with Gale. But jokes about the use of firearms for anything
(despite humorous intent) is something that shouldn't be done. In some
cases, it can be strong evidence to support a belief that a person might not
be responsible enough to be in possession of a weapon for fear that one of
those comments might be acted upon.
I'm not saying that Sprocket fits that profile, because I don't know him
well enough to make such an accusation, nor would I do so in this type of
venue. I would hope that if anything like this were to happen with anyone
on the listserv, that enough maturity would be displayed by contacting the
person directly instead of going out to the proverbial playground and
handling it with everyone watching.
But then again, everyone at some point is going to be offended by
something, and even dead silence would be offensive to someoene who really
likes to talk.

Four years ago, a family member was kidnapped and shot twice in the head by
a low life vermin. Three years ago, Mike's cousin was shot an killed by a
drug addict who flipped out and killed her in her sheep pasture. Joking
about shooting or wounding someone is rather insensitive to the growing
number of people whose lives are forever changed by violent crime. But feel
free to continue with your jokes. America is a great country and we have
great freedoms to speak out as we wish.
