I agree with you, David.  I have yet to see real proof that Bin Laden had anything to do with this.  Just because Bush wants to tell us that Bin Laden and Hussein were behind it, doesn't make it true.  Bin Laden and Hussein are/were horrible men, but I believe there are plenty of others out there hell bent on making the lives of U.S. citizens miserable.  I'm sure that these two men weren't exactly sad to see the tragedy on our land, probably had big grins, but I think we haven't enough tangible evidence to say Bin Laden was behind it.  Those involved may have been Laden wannabes, but that doesn't mean Bin Laden was the true mastermind.

As for our right to carry guns to protect ourselves from a rogue government, I'm not in favor of this at all.  Guns get into the wrong hands and ultimately more innocent lives are lost as a result of them.  I have no issues with those who hunt for food to feed their families, but I do have issues with those who want a gun to protect themselves from potential harm.  I've seen too many kids get a hold of these guns because the supposed responsible adults negligence in keeping them locked up away from them.

  I remain unconvinced that Bin Laden had anything to do with 9/11.  There is compelling evidence that 9/11 was a home grown event designed to create an environment where the American people would accept an invasion of the Middle East.

   

  Many years ago I reacted negatively to Hugh's comment that American citizens right to carry guns was needed to protect them from a rogue Government.  I am much less convinced that I was right now.

  Always remember there never would have been a 9/11 or an Iraq if bubba had taken Bin Laden when offered.
