33. I particularly like the ones about Evil Toters™ carrying in restaurants

I particularly like the ones about Evil Toters™ carrying in restaurants or other crowded places and someone drops a tray of glasses, or a car backfires, or someone sets off a firecracker and they all clear leather and start banging away at one another. It's kind of like Bigfoot - I often hear about it but have never seen it. Sounds more like a hopeful but sick fantasy on the part of gun-fearers than anything with a real chance of happening.
