To the other peeps:


Oh yes, he got me good...except..I NEVER said I endorsed the letter...if you look...what did I actually write?


Yeah, anecdotal evidence is the least trustworthy, but it is still one of those things that make you say Hmmmmm! (to quote a tv talk show host from the 90's)

And also

I can't verify anything about the originator,



Soooo oh boy am I eating crow....NOT. Sheesh. If you all need so badly to put me in my place, at least wait till I actually make some kind of stand.
No worries Magik. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Should I fall on my sword when I actually acknowledged the source may be faulty? seems to me that you have an unreasonable need to see me accept balme or fault. Oh and by the way, the statistics I got from other sources still say the numbers given in the debunking thread are wrong...so there are still some things that aren't known for sure.

You people are far to over zealous about this. MagiK likes having gun ownsership, you dont, deal with it. No need to make little 'witty' remarks to 'put someone in their place' cause it just makes you look foolish really.

Unlike all the gun owners that like to state that we that do not own guns are wimps and should not even think about staring a family, since we refuse to protect our property or loved ones using a firearm.

Lighten up Iron.

[/QUOTE]Hmm.. I imagine that when he said "all the gun owners" he meant that it was a common opinion he had heard from gun-owners he knows of- you are not "all gun owners" so I don't think he was trying to put words in your mouth.
