I hear what you're sayin', Tom. But, I also think that this collective "fear of crime" and "fear of our fellow countrymen" is often driven to a frenzied state in this country by the 6 o'clock News which just LOVES to motivate their ratings by this constant barrage that there's "crime, crime, crime in the streets" in their broadcasts.

(oh and BTW, after reading your last response here's answers(d) and (e) for ya, dude:

(d)Never get involved in a road rage incident.

and

(e)Check your friggin' gas gauge in your car or if you're on your Triumph check your odometer reading, and NEVER run out of gas, especially while you're driving/riding through a "questionable area".




Yeah all you hear about is people get shot...you dont hear about a guy pulling his legal weapon to scare off some street thugs and saving himself....its not "news"...so it misleads people

and the "happiness is a warm gun" mentality doesnt help the situation...all that attitude gets us is more laws and regulations to where people in my position cant carry when i feel threatened.

rush hour dwight, cut-offs, his middle finger, and his tickets in the mail...a selt belt one too, which really made me mad cause i always wear my belt, it was my first taste of police corruption..it was awesome

gas gauge broke...thought i had enough...stalled at the top of the bridge out of philly and i coasted into the heart of Camden unarmed for battle..ahah
