My son of 46 has also been declined because of lack of training. A chainsaw will cripple you in a heart beat. Just like the gun I have seen many accidents and deaths involving chainsaws.

    I went to a 3 day training class put on by the Forest Service or I would not operate one myself. It is not just the saw that is dangerous but the tree you are cutting. If you do not understand how energy is stored in a downed tree then you should not even cut the first branch.

    She will never admit it now that you have called her on it.

    Im not suprised that she didnt answer my question about firearms in national parks, or why she was confused about this thread, either.

    Some people you cant expect even the admission they where even slightly incorrect or outright wrong.

    Why guns are safer than bullets!

    http://www.dailynews.com/ci_12491407?source=rss_viewed


    -------------------------

    I jammed a emm effing drill bit into my finger last Friday.

    A corded drill with an idiot at the trigger is another dangerous tool, this I can vouch for.

    Same as any ordinary item that you can pick up.

    Rocks on the ground were pretty safe until someone decided it can put a dent (pun intended) in your day, skin, brain, bones....

    Would-be gangster shoots off own manhood
    A would-be gangster shot himself in the crutch when his gun went off half cocked in his pocket.

    Lukas Neuhardt, 27, had forgotten to put the safety catch on when he stuffed the gun into his trouser pocket to impress pals in Saarbruecken, Germany.

    He told paramedics that a masked mugger had blasted him in the crutch in a bungled robbery.

    But police found a hole in his statement when they saw that the gunshot had miraculously left his trousers intact.

    "Instead there was a charred hole in his pocket so either it was the shot of the century or he did it himself," said a police source.

    Now - after surgeons stitched his manhood back together - he's facing up to three years in jail for breaching Germany's tough new anti gun laws.

    ------------------------
    More proof that guns are not the problem, it's the idiots using them.

    RICHARD, why are you pointing out that gun laws dont work? Stop bringing logic to this thread, you'll anger the anti's.
