Arming Pilots - Are For or Against?

AP says that passengers are split on the concept of allowing pilots to carry firearms.

Since we tend to travel more than most, are you for or against pilots carrying firearms?

I'll start with a for vote. I view the pilots as being ultimately responsible for the safety of the pax & I don't feel jeapordized by the concept of weapons in the cockpit.

Other thoughts?

Ah Ah, I know what you're thinking. Did he fire six shots or only five? Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement, I've kinda lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do ya punk?
