The threat is hardly imminent. I acknowledge it is minuscule.

Which is why I like conversing with you. You're sensible. We may disagree on a lot of stuff, but you are open to dialogue and reason.

You also acknowledged (I think it was you) that in the few seconds of the break-in, there would have been no opportunity to retrieve the weapon. Again, you're realistic. However, we can see what I was talking about every time the media says a new threat is imminent. A surge in gun sales. "Obama is elected; gun sales surge". Nevermind that he never touched guns -much to the consternation of progressives-, and at most only complained about them during obligatory post-shooting press conferences. Didn't matter, gun sales surged. People were reacting out of fear.

BTW, when was the last time you checked the pressure in your spare? It's easy to forget. The one time I needed my spare, it was only at about 50% pressure. Enough to get me going again, but I had to find a station to properly pressurize it.
