I was once caught in the crossfire when two assholes decided to shoot at each other on a Houston freeway. I'm not sure how my legally or illegally having or using a gun under those circumstances would have helped the situation.
I'm not anti-gun, though. I saw a hell of a lot of people heading to their hunting leases this weekend, though deer season hasn't started yet (well, the archery season started this weekend, but I think that's sort of irrelevant to this discussion). I feel sorry for the local dove population since doves are the only thing people can really shoot right now. They usually clear out before labor day, though, much to the chagrin of hunters statewide. My sister's dog informs me that duck season starts the first weekend of November. I imagine that I'll be sitting in a duck blind with a shotgun and some beer shortly thereafter.
