Is that something a person would be proud to own???? Unless you are an assassin or an assassin want to be? :shock:

Well, it's a piece of history...you could use it to protect the home you buy when they develop the Grassy Knoll.

You KNOW that's coming, too, and you know they'll get away w/ it.

"Badgeman's" footprints turned into a powder room that's walls are so cheap and thin cocktail party guests hear Uncle Ted dropping bait.
The picket fence reduced to a mere battle line drawn between property owners over swimming pools and cookout decks.

Hopefully, they would only be "proud" of it as a historical item. Besides, would it even be in workable condition after all these years?

I Guess!! But it seems morbid to me. Almost as morbid as having "PRIDE" in owning the suit Jackie wore when the President was shot.

It's not as morbid or unusual as some of you may think. I have collected memorabilia from serial killers for years, as well as having an autograph collection of some 23,000 pieces. I have memorabilia from John Wayne Gacy, Richard Ramirez, Squeaky Frome, Charles Manson, Mark David Chapman, and Kenneth McDuff among others. I DO NOT hold these people in high esteem, I am simply a collector of historical pieces. In addition to the serial killer stuff, I have lots and lots of stuff that is NOT morbid. Anyway, just my two cents, I'm a regular guy, got a psycho.

A pistol?

Are you sure? From the distance of the shot, I thought it had to be a rifle for sure.

It's the gun that Jack Ruby used to kill Oswald.

I thought so. I hardly ever read the links, so I open my big mouth first.

Sorry.

I also have a club reported to be the murder weapon of a caveman, but I can't verify it's authenticity..............
