[QUOTE="klein, post: 570690, member: 23950"] Sure the chimes we'rnt just playing tricks on you ? Esspecially on the glass door with heavy winds. I have read the statistics on handguns in the states today. They are gruesome ! If you ever visit a ball or football game with 50.000 spectators. Keep this in mind: From those 50.000 : 2.2 people will be shot dead that year. 22 or more will be shot and "only" injured. 32 will be robbed at gunpoint and another 3.2 people will commit suicide with a gun. thats a whole busload going to the game ! To comparison, here's Canada Stats: 0.25 will be shot and killed (need to fill that stadium 4 times, before a death occurs) I can only guess non-fetal shootings, lets say 1. 9 robberies at gunpoint 1.7 suicide by gun. These figures are however from 1998. Before the even stricter ban of firearms came into place in 2003 in Canada. America has the highest killings by guns, by a distance (out of space distance) ! I would never feel compfy with a gun in my house. NEVER ! If I have a bad day, shoot myself, or shoot someone else ? Or in your case, what if it was just a neighbor, looking to borrow a flashlight, and you panicked ? Ban them all, go back to fist fighting, like we do in hockey ! [/QUOTE]
