:I would argue that not wanting a large dog to chase you or not wanting to get shot are both very rational fears.  I think you're trying to link gun control policies with lacking "mental strength," and I don't think it's a good comparison.  There's a big difference between being afraid of being shot (if you were in a combat zone, wouldn't you be?) and believing that less guns in society as a whole would reduce crime.  [[User:Corry|Corry]] 10:45, 21 October 2008 (EDT)

:: This obviously refers to an irrational or exaggerated fear of dog attacks, or guns.  There may be legitimate fears of flying in airplanes, but the "fear of flying" obviously refers to an irrational or exaggerated fear.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 12:33, 21 October 2008 (EDT)
