<DIV>That makes no difference at all, I failed to see any where he was
advocating the use of violence in any way. For all I care he could have had a
bradley fighting vehicle and the and the message would be the same, this is
what I like to do. no intent to glorify violence.</DIV>
<DIV>This political correctness crap is really getting to me. When I grew up
it was common to carry a rifle or shotgun to school in your trunk, or
in your hands if given to the office for safe keeping during the day, for
hunting after school and no I did not live in the country, I lived in
Petersburg, 20 miles south of Richmond Va.. As for a knife, don't make me
laugh,everyone, male, female as well as the teachers carried one, a knife
is a TOOL folks, used for cutting when needed, a weapon was anything grabbed
to hurt someone else with, chair, brick,eraser etc. Use your brains
people.</DIV>
