Re: Who needs terrorists? We can cause terror all byourselves...

Wind moves a bullet too - which is why a scope has two adjustment
controls, elevation and wind. Have you ever shot a gun at any great
distance (my rifle will do 1k yards nicely)? How about a high-powered
pellet gun? My pellet gun, for instance, COULD conceivably kill you at
50-100 feet and would definitely send you to the hospital. If the
pellet gun will take a scope, and not purchased at Wal-Mart (though
some of those will go 900-1k fps) its probably not one you want to
stand in front of, or treat like a toy.


Before any more is said on this thread, lets not. Its obvious, based
on the other thread regarding 9/11 conspiracies, that far too many
people feel comfortable theorizing on subjects they have no concept
of. I would say, on that thread, that unless you are currently charged
with the defense of the country, have been recently, were in one of
the targets or lost a loved one in of those targets, you should keep
your ignorance (am I being too kind not using stupid?) to yourself. If
you must make wild accusations that have a real effect on those you
purport to support or care about, do it with a vote in the next
election, or at least out of the public's eye.
