Gun Control?
Its not so much that we have crazies walking amongst us...
Its the ease in which these crazies can get armed and dangerous...

LOL, when we had prohibition alcohol was readily available to anyone who wanted it limiting access to guns will be no different- gun control only works if criminals and those bent on destruction choose to follow the law but we all know that's not going to be the case. Gun control would not have stopped this nutt case.

Guys, if you don't mind...
I would prefer that we not discuss too much of this on the forum.
Thanks.

Gun control would not have stopped this nutt case. I disagree... You simplify this construct a little too much... If we take the Prohibition analogy, you must also submit, that during those times, you had to be in the business, or be in know, to be able to get the sauce... Similarly, to get a gun, under gun prohibition, you'd have to be in the business, or be in the know... two things a poor college student wouldn't have... More so, criminals are murders of circumstance... psychotics are... well... crazy... And with gun prohibition, at least the crazies won't have the guns... and if they do... at least it won't be the semi=automatic rifles...

Khalfie comes from a different perspective and I can appreciate it.
gun violence has taken a good many of young black men from out society. gun violence in teh black culture is seen differently.
I think it is a power trip thing for young male black gang bangers. it gives them power and rspect they think. it is sad we lose good young black kids every day to gun violence.
personally I do not believe in gun control. all one has to do is see what has happened to those countries liek nazi germany. remove the possibility of armed revolt and you can control people.
as the bumper sticker says, a person with a gun is a citizen, a person without a gun is a subject.

Again, would prefer to keep these discussions off the board. Many moral issues can be discussed in-depth at forums such as www.youdebate.com/
