I didn't say that, and I didn't say anything about criminalizing guns. It is my belief that there are relatively very few individual who can demonstrate an actual use for a personally owned gun - hunters, target shooters, for the most part - and we can devise ways to enable them to own guns while trying to keep guns out of the hands of those who really should not have them. I don't think it's unreasonable or unconstitutional to try to do that. Tom Beck www.prydonians.org www.mercerjewishsingles.org "I always knew I'd see the first man on the Moon.
