Default Off Topic *Gun violence out of control*

I work with a teacher who was a student and on the campus when the shooting
started. I've seen a pic of him hiding behind a Volkswagen during the
attack. Every year he does a seminar on "what it was like."
But of course, these are kids who don't believe the moon landings were real,
or genocide, or WWII for that matter. They think nothing happened before
they were born.
Amazing, really.

So? I was around when Kent State happened. I'm not afraid
of college campuses.

Sorry Max, but it does happen. I was around during the

Chicago riots.

at the cost of freedom. Not a good trade IMO.

What freedom...the one that has you looking over your
shoulder when
walking at night...or the one that has you looking

around
when a car
backfires?

I don't do any of those things.
I don't know anybody that does.
Do you do those things.
Perhaps Jon does.

The rest of the world gets a rather distorted,

over-dramatized view of
America's gun issues. Oz must think we lurk in shadows,

holding our
defense weapons in front of our bodies, constantly wary

of attackers.
That only happens in paintball arcades, to the best of

my knowledge.
