 VH>> Well, if guns are a problem in this country -- they're the ones who
 VH>> created it.  And they did it for money.

 RJT> Just for money?  There's gotta be more involved in it than that.
 RJT> Their attitude that "guns are yucky" for example...

Not just guns, but certain kinds of guns.

One thing I noticed while watching some of the old cops & robbers-type TV
shows was confirmation of something I read in either G&A or an NRA
publication:

The crooks generally used autos while the good guys made do with revolvers.
The crooks used Thompsons; the good guys used BARs, if they had autofire
capability at all.

That held through the '70s (Hawaii 5-0) until Miami Vice came along, IIRC.
