Have a nice life in sheepdom!
Do you drink wine with your quiche, or is that also illegal in the UK?
BTW, I like straight whiskey with my cigars.
I think some of you guys mis-understand me, or maybe you're being a little sensitive
I'm a pretty good shot myself, though prefer archery. My point is not that there is anything wrong in having an interest in firearms and particpating in gunnery clubs etc. (heck, the episode of Mythbusters where the guys get up to mischief with a M134 and a tree is one of my fave episodes). My point is how some people consider them to be "cool", and not as deadly weapons which should be treated with respect.
*edit*
A little anecdote; while I was in school there was boy in the class who was a bit, well, nuts. One day he had to write something on the blackboard (I forget why). He wrote his sentence in a wavy line, a bit like a snake, and not with a more traditional straight line.
When he was asked why he wrote that way, his reply was "Because it's like my favourite missile, the Sidewinder".
*another edit*
Guns were quite "cool" in Matrix I suppose.
*edit and possibly a backtrack*
"AK-47... The very best there is. When you absolutely, positively got to kill every motherf****r in the room, accept no substitutes" is actually quite a cool quote, and it's about a gun.
I think some guns are VERY cool and consider them a hobby of mine
Although I think my AR is insanely cool I also respect it as a weapon and take full responsibility for my actions when handling it
