How naive is that? Just because you don't know it, I'll bet your dollars killed someone, somewhere. Drug raid? Drug war? Robbery? Who knows.....could'a been any of those things.

And my handguns have never been used for those purposes. Look at it this way....my guns were purchased "used." I have removed them from the potential damage stream, so I'm a "steward" of the weapons, keeping them safe.

But you'll spend those dollars, and they might kill someone. How would you know if someone else makes a decision with them after you don't control them anymore?
