There are so many ways in which we can get rid of the firearms issue in the US. It would be less of an issue if there were not that many foolish people who worship guns as much as they do with God. I already have my share of disgust for life about firearms sold on the civilian market since 1999 with Columbine and the NRA's display a few days later. If some people love guns that much, they can just apply to be men and women in uniform.
Perhaps I should save more for the gun control thread. Last edited by KiraYamatoFan; 2012-10-19 at 02:06. |

Many people don't "love guns" any more than they love electricity, but they consider a firearm to be an essential tool. This is particularly true in areas where police response is slow, in rural areas, for women being threatened by abusers, etc.
What we have is a *violence* issue in the US - which derives from multiple societal dysfunction vectors. Regulation isn't inherently evil, but I'm not keen on laws that don't actually make sense, are ineffective, or actually have worse "unintended consequences".

Not really. If you look at the letter of what he said, all it was was an encouragement for entrepreneurs to share their political convictions. (Which they're as free to do as anyone else.) I suppose doing it in the workplace could be illegal in some countries, but I don't think the US is one of them.
