It's been a pleasure discussing with you 10X and I've learned from
you.
You've expanded my thinking on handgun use in predatory areas. I
hope Martin's ban on handguns, if he gets in, will take this into
account. But still I cannot see how a ban, with perhaps thousands of
exceptions, can work.
Thanks for that extra knowledge to add to my growing fund.
A happy new year to you and your family.
Penny
