The Rifleman and Gun Guntrol

Hi SSS,

Just got through watching tonight's episode of The Rifleman, which was a terrific look at what could happen to a town if a gun control law was enacted. In this particular episode, the bad guys almost took over the town after discovering that the townsfolk had been disarmed by the Marshal. The Marshal's gun control law made it easy pickings for the bad guys to get control of the town.

Now only if Lucas had been carrying a Spencer

Well, I always thought "The Rifleman" was kind of a pro-gun-control show anyway. He won't carry a handgun because they are only for killing people, but he sure racks up the body count with that 92!

Hi Gospel Micah,

Yep, I watch it every night or every chance I get...it being in black and white doesn't matter at all. Whenever I see lucas light up that cigar, I wonder how much it contributed to the lung cancer that finally took his life for real.

I enjoyed the show as a kid, and still do as an "old" man.
