no sig because apparently quoting people in context is offensive to them.

Discounting the dozens of stray bullets going into the crowd of course. But hey, the guy with the knife would be dead wouldn't he? The rest are acceptable losses.

Having a standard that pilots lose their licence after making a mistake despite doing no harm to aircraft or passengers means soon you needn't worry about a pilot surplus or pilots offering to fly for free. Where do you get your experience from?

A gun is only a tool and the value and safety of the tool depends on who is using it.

True some idiots would hit everyone in the area, give an idiot a skill saw and he is likely to cut his dick off, does that make skill saws dangerous?

The hardest thing about flying is knowing when to say no


After over a half a century of flying no one ever died because of my decision not to fly.

I saw it pretty recently. Last few weeks, I think. It happened in Mexico. Bike club, escorted by local Police, out for a ride. The "cage" driver was up all night drinking on the beach. Fell asleep. The crash woke him. He's from Texas. He now resides in a Mexican jail! He's from Brownsville.

I think you would agree Cat that a crowd of people flailing around skill saws is pretty dangerous. Likewise a crowd of people shooting guns at one person in their midst is a recipe for disaster as well. One guy dead? That's a laugh.

one person has been killed and five others injured in an attack outside an Orlando, Florida supermarket.

Orlando police spokeswoman Barbara Jones says one person was fatally stabbed Monday morning in a parking lot. Four others were taken to a hospital.

One is in critical condition and another is in surgery. The conditions for the others involved are not yet known.
