Rande,

In regards to:

<<Of the entire population, probably only a few percent of the people have the temperament and intelligence to carry a
concealed self-defense weapon routinely and never abuse the privilege. Let's call them citizen-deputies (any name will do). They are checked out by the local police and FBI. They pass reasonable 'common-sense' tests. They are reasonably trained. They carry elaborate ID's. They may not consume
any alcohol while carrying. They do not need 44 magnums.
In fact, they start out with two-shot 22 derringers.>>

It wasn't my idea but that of a non SI guy, John. I'm not sure where I stand on that concept, in fact, just passed it along into the general boullabaise of ideas here (sound and fury, signifying nothing).
