Let's get real, Tim. Guns are very good at what they're designed to
do, kill things.
I know, I use them around the farm for varmint control. They're very

I'm assuming you wouldn't go out there to kill varmints with a sword,
a knife or a bludgeon as long as you have an efficient weapon like a
gun.
I think most people agree with you, including those who are targeting
other humans.
What I don't understand is why folks like you don't recognize that
human beings are mutable, territorial, protective of their lot and
family and can be convinced or convince themselves that justice,
vigilantism or retribution are perfectly good solutions, answered with
the use of a very efficient killing tool.
And that Americans are especially vulnerable to requiring immediate
gratificaiton.
It's how bin Laden sucked us into spending trillions and thousands of
lives in a dubious adventure. Poke the idiot and watch him go insane.
That's the USA.
You think wider distribution and availability of weapons is a good
development?

I am not sure I would blame bin Ladden for this one, but I am glad he is
gone, I would say USA DC did this to themselves as even before USA had
problems with excessive military spending and corruption going back a
long way.
Case in point, is there a specific reason why the USA DC government is
so in love with being the worlds biggest bully? Some reason that Egypt,
Tunisia, Libya, Ivory Coast affairs threaten Ohio USA more than DC
corruption and mismanagement?
USA spends more on military than the top 25 other nations combined, more
than China, Russia, India, UK, Canada, Australia, all of central Europe
and south America combined. Bin Laden was an excuse, not the reason for
US DC to go even more spend crazy.
Then you get Bernanke, you can't tax people 110% of their wages,s o we
will just print/counterfeiter the currency needed to keep the US
military ruse going. Fact is, USA has a WW II style army bigger than
the rest of the planet. Trouble is, WW III isn't fought WW II style.
WW III will be terrorists, that doesn't take 11 aircraft carriers and
1000's of other ships. Might be biological? Or economic. Imagine if
you can get a president to appeal to peoples envy and greed to sellout
USA economically on debt? Oh wait...that is happening.
Fact is economically, and like Germany at the end, you can't afford the
gas to run the damned thing any more.
USA is vulnerable, and the cause is DC stagnation, corruption and
internal. USA needs a real leader with a kick ass attitude - an clear
Obomba the USA with just more debt is not the one.
