But before that, many planes = would have had to make emergency landings, and probably crashed, if = ordinary=20 citizens, who had a right to carry a gun, were on board planes. A single = bullet in the wrong place can bring down a plane full of people. Airline = personnel have had hard enough time controlling passengers who didn't = like=20 the fact that their plane was arriving 10 minuets late. I can imagine = some of=20 them pulling a gun to get the pilot to fly faster.=20 A sky marshal is one thing. But to allow any one else with a gun on a = plane=20 is a disaster waiting to happen. " Wim, I was going to post this off list, but I changed my mind. Everything I said in my posting was true, and no, I'm not trying to = "Talk the Big talk". There were probably people on board one of those = planes with close to the same training that I have had, and in the same = position of frustration at being put in the situation of being made = totally helpless by others who were merely trying to make them safer. We = have all raged as of late at the feelings of helplessness this has given = us, and these were my feelings as I read about the plight of the = passengers. You are absolutely correct in saying that some people couldn't act = responsibly at all times, and some accidents would probably occur, and I = wasn't saying that we should allow any yahoo who owns a firearm on a = plane with it. I was simply stating what I would have done. And I would = have been able to clear five or six people with knives, easy. How about only people who have had background checks done by the = FBI, as I have had; no, I guess that wouldn't be good enough either. =20 As far I as know, though, I haven't really done anything that would = require God to have mercy on my soul. =20 Kevin Ramsey ramsey@extremezone.com ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
