Bullshit. I exhibit distaste for the American fetish for firearms, and
the effect it has on society. And I exhibit scorn for paranoia so severe
as to cause a person to _require_ a firearm to do ordinary things like
ride a quiet bike path, drive a car, fill a gas tank, etc.

And BTW, it's not just our super-timid tricyclist. One classmate of mine
in an adult education class brought his handgun to a class picnic in the
country. Nice guy, but that was crazy paranoia. Another guy, less
admirable in general, bragged to me about carrying his handgun into a
folk music concert we attended. Absolute stupidity, and crazy paranoia.

That latter guy played guitar, but was so obese that he used a special
stand to hold his guitar out away from his belly. Maybe his physical
shortcomings triggered feelings of great vulnerability, as with Mr.
Tricycle? Nonetheless, his risk assessment was off the charts crazy - as
is Mr. Tricycle's.

Oh my, Krygowski is directing all his anger at me now. I can't even
imagine the extent of his shame that drives him to hate and envy me
so.

No problem. I've got big shoulders. I can take it if it makes him feel
better about himself. Better than him taking it out on his poor wife.

That poor woman has suffered enough living with a narcissist, but
OTOH, maybe she wears the pants in the family. Frank certainly
doesn't.
