This thread may have got a bit too serious and a bit too silly.
Why do folks talk of nutters and checks etc.
As far as I was aware shooting in the USA are most often carried out by one single group in society. They aren't nutters, they don't intend to hurt and they are known to thr gun owner. Americans here should easily identify this group!
I got a bit bored of the thread when banning cars etc was brought up.
Statistically the highest percentage of death per activity is sleeping. Do these same folks propose banning sleep?
I suppose aircrew carry weapons, drive cars and also sleep, so at least the thread could be relevant.
