Go to www.packing.org and click on the story on the right about 'man stops woman with gun'.  An upset woman wanted revenge for losing a custody case.  She entered an attorney's office with a .357 and a molotov cocktail.  The attorney pulled his own .357 and held her at bay until police arrived.  Here is a perfect example of how the places that don't issue CCW and companies that don't allow weapons in the workplace are missing the point, and how someone being legally armed at work can prevent these tragedies.  It also shows that self defense with legal weapons does not have to mean having a body count, which is what the anti's want to see as proof of guns doing good things.

Okay, Tim, I changed it.  Picky,picky,picky.  I said civilian so as to differentiate from a police officer.

realist, most of the time, armed citizens don't kill the bad guy, just hold them for arrest or send them scampering.  I read an article the other day by some anti and basically she was asking where is the body count of all the bad guys.  She is not aware that we are not a bunch of trigger happy fools just itching to kill somebody.

I love reading stories of the 2nd Amendment at work.  Notice the man is an attorney?  He must not be one of those lousy trial lawyers that helped put (and keep) Klinton in office.  Good post LARRY G.
