Isnt it a gun law that you have to report an incident to the police any time you draw your weapon at someone? Or is that just anytime you fire it?

Tell you what, the day I'm so old and blind that I chase people out of their car with a handgun because I can't tell it from my own... I'll voluntarily hand in my license.

I'll be an old fart one day too, I just hope I don't lose my wits as bad as this old lady.

No, just the ones senile enough to threaten 4 people for stealing their own car.

It's sort of funny I guess, but no way should this lady have a gun on her.

Um - I'm one right here... I even do small things like - I found a six-pack of beer once in the bottom of a shopping cart in the parking lot - returned it to the store. Not everyone is a total dodo. Some of us even raise our children with a strong sense of morals - jeez.

Cheers,

My mother inlaw was 73 and would walk a mile or so to the local Safeway to buy groceries, then walk back home with her couple of bags. When she got home, she always checked the receipt against what was in the bag, just to make sure she wasn't over charged.

One day, she got home and there was a loaf of bread but it wasn't on the bill, so she walked right back down to the store and paid for it...

Those are morals that you don't see too often in the youth today...

Very respectable of her but...why didn't she just check the receipt before she left the store

Every generation has its problems, and everytime one generation starts to get older they will point to the next couple generations and say that they were the last decent generation.

There we go. See, anybody can make broad generalizations that accomplish nothing. How can you point to any generation and say that they're no good? That's foolish and a little presumptuous.

BTW, it was a funny story.

why is it that all baby boomers were long haired hippies who didnt respect their own country? You'd be hard pressed to find one who wasnt an ex drugged out, flower power, disrespectful, douchebag who now drives a BMW with dancing bears on the bumper and lives in his or own own hypocrasy.

I guess the reason all us Generation X'ers have no ethics is because the Baby Boomers were high when they were supposed to be teaching us values.
