Pity them. They're scared or paranoid or both!

I'd be scared and paranoid if I lived in a country where Donald Trump could end up being my leader in the near future.

Its this kind of mentallity that Obma (and the other anti gun lobbies) is up against in trying to reform gun control in the US.

In my view it'll never be controlled in the US, and even my American friends say there are just too many inbreds who want guns, the bigger the better, the more rounds per sec.

If it was just 6 shooters it wouldn't be so bad, but the madness of what you can buy beggars belief.

I used to wear a back pack when I used the bike to commute. By the time I stopped and got my backpack off and gloves to do the zips, to rummage around to find a weapon would take some time. I think by then I'd have been shot, run over or whatever I was protecting myself against.

I think Jim Jefferies - Gun Control clip on youtube sums it up quite nicely.

That's where I find the Wombat useful.

I camouflage it to take it in the office. The boss hasn't spotted it yet.
