Nation of Cowards
From: "D. A. Kensler"
<duhwayne@qwest.net> Ms. Wilson,
I just finished reading the exchange
between you & Kurt Amesbury concerning your stance on arming pilots of Mesa
Air. I want you to know of my position. I need to fly my daughter & myself,
several times yearly, to points west. Until I can be assured that there are "Lethal"
measures in-place to protect my daughter & me while in your company's custody,
I will NOT be using your airlines.
It is my belief that the restrictions
imposed (infringements to the 2nd Amendment) by disarming all customers, thus
taking away their right to defend themselves while doing business with (flying
on) commercial airlines, is the primary contributing factor to the incidents
of 9-11-01.
My suggestion is to allow all "Concealed
Carry Weapons permit holders" (CCW), law enforcement, pilots, & Sky
Marshals in particular to carry hand weapons (loaded with frangible bullets)
onto any & all commercial carriers. Statistics have proven that CCWs have
a much lower rate of "collateral damage" (2% vs. 11%) of nearby innocents
than professional law enforcement personnel thus allowing them the "preferred
position" of being able to defend themselves & other law-abiding customers. If you believe it is reprehensible to possess the means and will to use lethal
force to repel a criminal assault... how can you rightfully ask another human
being to risk his life to protect yours?
