Computer “Ad” stirs memories of guns and Uncle Bob

Quote:
The 2009 Craig's List ad from someone who supposedly warded off a mugger armed with a knife by whipping out a pistol reminded me of gun-rights advocates such as my late Uncle Bob.

If you’re curious, you can read two versions of this Craig’s List “ad” at Snopes.com, a Web site discussing urban legends and Internet rumors.

Bob argued that too many laws protected the accused.
Which is odd, since the very constitution that protects Bob's right to have a gun also protects the accused.
