articles.

I'm not going to try to convince you two that I didn't have some hidden
agenda; you're going to believe what you want to believe. What I don't
understand though is why - rather than venting your angst - you don't
spare yourselves the pain and use your browser to twit filter my posts.

OK, well I just figured it was one of those "off your meds" situations where the
voices told you to post.

No, but I did have my aluminum foil cap for protection from those German
reactors. <vng>

I mean really. Look at the group name. Notice the "rural"
part. Rural means that a home invasion simply means presenting a target-rich
environment for the homeowner.

A home invasion here would present a challenging decision - which gun would be most
suited to which target.

See the "Restriction on Guns" thread for the weapons of choice discussion.
