Yes indeed. Also, he'll become one of my top favourite posters just the minute he tells me where he got that avatar from...

I am hearing talk about allowing universtity students to carry guns on campus. Is this how you solve massacre problems, by giving out more and more guns?

if you agree with this then you are putting a gun right in darwin's hand and saying 'let's go buddy start the machine'. once all the smoke clears we shall see who survives...i bet it wont be pretty

The other extreme won't work either. Total gun saturation will result in a decreaced crime rate and a massively increaced violent and accidental death rate. Not good.

That said, I do agree with you, to an extent. Neither extreme will work. What the US needs is tougher and better enforced gun laws. If you do it slowly enough you can essentially remove guns from a society and never run into the situation where criminals are armed and citizens aren't.

Glad we can agree, at least partly, on something. Better enforcement of current laws is acceptable, but adding more laws to the book is just a waste of paper and more headackes. Felons should probably not be able to buy guns, even .22s. Neither people who are unstable. I say, let responcible persons own them and come down hard on any who slip up.
