A gun is a tool, no better or no worse than any other tool: an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.

It does.... One of the "fab four" of Miami Vice fame.


In the pilot episode of the old Miami Vice TV series, Tubbs is still chillin' on Crocket's sailboat (The "St. Vitas Dance"), while waiting for the big deal with Calderone to go down. While doing so and getting around Elvis (Crocket's aligator ), Tubbs is rummaging through Crocket's music collection (cassettes, still at that time). Much to his dismay, he finds these four musicians, primarily:


1) Waylon Jennings
2) George Jones
3) Jimmy Buffet
4) Dickey Betts


Sonny Crocket was definitely into SOFL music.....
