re: #47 William Barnett-Lewis

That said, why should my wife not be able to have a Colt Series 80 1911 pistol for target shooting or hunting?

Because the rest of us want to require something of all of us: the right to live in a society without the fear of being shot 24/7.

I have no problem with your wife having a Colt Series 80 1911 pistol, but I demand that she be of sound mind, and carry insurance for the accidental or intentional misuse of said weapon.
