New topic: Let's talk about guns: Gun control, NRA, handguns, automatic guns, semi-automatic guns, criminals, law enforcement, public...Any comments?
I'm opposed to gun control (except to the extent that they should be kept out of the hands of convicted criminals and the mentally ill/disabled), I own a number of semi automatic handguns, and I don't support the NRA.

I also think that it should be legal to shoot (only to maim, I'm not inhumane afterall) people who commit blatant acts of stupidity.

Very quickly:

Bush *is* a dullard.

We have lots of guns. Pistols, shotgun, assualt rifles, bb guns. Even the wifey has a carry permit.

Absolutely!

What would you say to this scenario: Person breaking in your house. Person is definately coming in. If you shoot this person and he falls outside your house, should you pull him inside?

Oh, and that little net on the passenger's side is a perfect place to stick a pistol.

No, why waste the energy. If I tag the person, there'll be plenty of forensic evidence to show that he/she was inside the house when the shot was fired.

Dean, I want to hear the answer to "during vertebrate gastrulation, what germ layer forms the notochord.....". I'm writing a romance novel in my spare time, and I think I can use that if I add a few four letter words.
Mesoderm differentiates into chordamesoderm to form the notochord (precursor to the vertebrae and intervertebral discs). Good luck with the dirty words.

I caught a couple cat burglars once. He got 5 years and sent to a couple other states after Florida was done with him. She got escorted to the I75 and let go for telling me where our jewelry was. It was amazing how fast she talked when she saw my stun gun on her crotch.
