I dont care about those issues. The fact you show a gun to a criminal is what it takes ... you rarely ever fire it.

And it will never fire if its taken away form the assigned owner.

Cool.

That's where we are headed..............

My guns have cable locks and are in a safe inside my house.
I have a Remington with a lock built into the trigger. You need a special key to unlock it.

My car sits, not in my garage, but in my driveway. Unlocked.

It doesn't have an alarm system and I have the option of using or not using my seatbelt even though I'm prohibited from driving without it and there are consequences to face if I'm caught.

Although the state requires I register and insure my vehicles this is not always the case. There have been a few times when I've driven it without either. Slap a plate on it and go. These were times in my early 20s when it was my only for of transportation though.

Edit: I got derailed and forgot what I was going to say. I remember now...
Ultimately it's my decision to get tanked up and got for a high speed drive into a shopping mall or to drive sober, follow all the laws, and arrive safely.
THE DECISION LIES WITH THE INDIVIDUAL.
Same with my firearms.

in starry's world

No door locks, no car alarm, no seat belts, is parked outside, key left in the ignition. Unless you know 1940s vehicles you can't start it... Hasn't been licensed since 1974, and yes, it has been driven since then on the public roads with 1974 tabs. Cops never messed with me about it.

Towed my last licensed in 1991, in Alaska (by someone else), non-titled horse trailer across the country in 2011. Without brake lights or turn signals. Or issues. Behind a same era (antique) 1/2 ton truck. That has no seat belts. Or brake lights.

Lancer why are you shouting at us with giant blue type?

I'm not shouting.  The slightly larger print is easier for me to read.
I like blue.
Review all my posts on this website and you will find that most of them are in the same color/font.

I can relate.  Last year a few folks here gave me the same she-ite about putting all my posts in 14 rather than using 11.  Like you, I simply wanted to read it easier.  So now, to keep them from getting their panties in a wad, I use Arial and 14 on every post.  A little larger and clearer, but doesn't seem to generate the same amount of rage.  At least no one has bugged me about it lately.
