345. Yeah, so was OJ -- so?
Goetz did not have a previous criminal record, and he was not a teenager; he was not considered a "crazy." And yet he shot four teenagers, including two while they were fleeing.

Is this the kind of country you want -- not only people carrying guns and "defending" themselves this way, but even MORE people carrying them so we'd get more real shoot-outs and crossfire as well?

There is no question I'd feel far LESS safe on a subway or city bus if I thought the people around me were all carrying guns. No question about it.
