He's right. Then again, if you can hit a duck with an AK-47, you're a better hunter than I am.
But that wasn't his point, and you know it. He was using that as a justification for banning AK47s. Are you in agreement with his viewpoint in that regard?

:roll:
I suspect that he was simply quoting Bill Clinton. :biggrinjester:

He needs to get a real self-defense weapon into her hand and take her into a neighborhood where it is an equalizer so she can feel what the 2nd Amendment is really about - not shooting clay pigeons as a rich man's club! Maybe Justice Thomas would be a better guide to such a location and the need for real protection.
I don't see the point. Taking a wild guess I would imagine that as a Justice they would both rate Secret Service bodyguards. As a result it is easy for people in such positions of power and used to being protected to become detached from the reality that you and I might experience.

EDIT: I was corrected on this. Apparently they don't enjoy bodyguard protection. But you get my point! :evil2:
