Pilots -armed and dangerous !

At first thought -especially after Sept.11 - it might seem a

    keen idea: arming airline pilots - DON'T MESS WITH ME PUNK TERRORISTS !

              I recall a line from that violently funny Hollywood movie

    " True Romance " : " Better to have a gun and not need it than to need

    a gun and not have it ! "  says Clarence, a true Pulp hero.

                 However, I suspect that merely possessing a gun alters

    a person's character - and violent situations are PROVOKED that were

    rather improbable  under normal circumstances .

                 You could arm bus drivers with guns, come to think of it.

     But what would that do to their cheerful, charming personalities ?

                 You could arm teachers with guns... and accident room doctors

    ... and landlords and bill collectors. And certified public accountants !

                If liberals have their way, you know, gun control will be

    as commonplace as birth control.   Is LESS people a good idea ?
