Of course I'm in favor of banning handguns.

ER — 2/16/2008 2:58:46 AM (archived)

They're concealable and highly portable, and by your own admission, they account for the majority of crimes. I'll gladly give mine up, and replace it with a pump shotgun. Right now, I really like the Mossberg short barrel.

I'll miss my Government Model .45, but it's a sacrifice I'm willing to make for my country.
