Flying to Nevada from Illinois with a gun
shmokes:
Perhaps heroin, cocain, crystal meth, etc. should be legalized as well. Not a single one of those substances is capable of action. They cannot walk up to me in my sleep and climb down my throat. Without human action they are perfectly harmless. Drugs don't kill people, people kill people.
Can y'all not see why I vomit whenever someone uses that argument. It's assinine.

Perhaps we should give up our freedom of speech as well. Too many people are dieing for speaking up against the norm. They are only words, if they offend others or if people are afraid of them we'd all be better off without hearing or saying them.
In fact you should start by not posting your nonsense response.
shmokes:
Speach is regulated. We do not have absolute freedom of speach. Drugs are regulated. Guns are regulated. All of them should be (speach the least of which, IMO)
I'm pretty sure there are at least 256 shades of grey (a.k.a. reality) between black and white. You should try hanging out there some time.
And yes, speach kills, and speach that incites someone to commit a crime is illegal, in spite of the constitutional protections.
And dieing is spelled dying, fyi. It's quirky, I know..

I have no interest in joining the pro-gun / anti-gun debate, but I just want to point out to DD that the city of Chicago has a total ban on all handguns, so that might be why people got a little fidgety on ya at O'Hare.

My Glock didn't make her fidgety; it was the assault rifle that made her jump. The funny thing about the situation, is that she asked him to show her that it was unloaded. It's not like he just randomly pulled it out of the case.
You can have a hand gun in Chicago, if you owned the handgun before the ban.
