Huuum, does that mean that your ancestors whom without "weapons" would not
have starved to death and to this day those persons that DID manage to
survive would still be "hunting" meals with "bow and arrow"(which are quite
dealy themselves)??? Better yet, ever seen a picture of ANYTHING struck by a
"bolt"???
Not sure of date (Listers please feel free to assist), but I do beleive the
Crossbow has been around LONGER then handguns (and/or rifles)?!?!?!?

Trite and inane.
<<To me, You guys are like the off-duty cop that came to my sisters birthday

Most "jurisdictions" REQUIRE their SWORN personnel to carry, even in off
hours as those persons are not just EIGHT hour folks. Geeesh. Bet if you
where being robbed at an ATM and a "off-duty" person interrupted (with or
without "deadly force") it would seem to be safe to say that you would be
INCENSED, right?? NOT.

Nope, just doing a VERY thankless job.
