Re: Psychology is Not the Answer
Faith asks:
Your armband suggestion went right over my head. Please explain?
The armbands were a reference to the movie, where the members of Charles Mott Society were given armbands at the checkpoints for stopping cigarettes from getting inside the town. Their leader had asked if they could wear armbands and Dick Van Dyke said right back to him, "sure!"

Re: It Goes on and on
Faith wrtites:
OK, you don't like the example of the Indians. Instead of arguing it, which I believe could be done
actually, i dug that notion that the Indian may have accepted white man with less carnage.
thumps up.

But they are notorious for ruining the accuracy of your shot. Why would you want to use one at the shooting range when you can use perfectly good headphones?

Re: silencers
...headphones
WHAT!?
Ear protection, like the kind you wear when you ride in the front beside the pilot of a helicopter. So you can hear the pilot talking over the blades.
