87. Nice reply

There is a certain mindset here that wants to give all the power to the government. And and let it regulate every inch of everyone's life.

That includes disarming everyone.

A retired cop in most states can carry a concealed weapon anywhere. You will never get the guns out of their hands NEVER

As far as politeness it doesn't exist any more.

The new term is "Disrespect". Do that in the inner city and see what happens---- gun laws or no gun laws
