Helplessness on the part of potential victims encourages violent behaivor in some people. If they start to realize the person their about to attack might have a .45 and know how to use it... well, that can sober them up in a hurry.
I definitely agree with you here, Mouse. I also like your earlier quote from Charles Bronson movies. I truly believe that untrained (therefore stupid) people handling firearms is very much a serious problem. That is why I will agree with any legislation requiring training in the handling and use of a firearm.
