And HassleCat --- could you kindly provide evidence to support this statement:

Many people think a SYG law means, "I can shoot you if I see you on my property.

Many? Nope.

W/regard to UBCs ---- the Wright/Rossi prison survey revealed that 5 out of 6 criminals don't acquire guns through normal retail channels, so UBCs would be more or less a symbolic rather than substantive move. I wouldn't oppose them however.
