After the terrific job he did with the Church of England, of course I will follow Rowan Williams' brilliance on the issue of gun control/sarc

[lurk]

So we’re obligated to respond to the verbal chirping of effeminate human figurines overseas now?

What is it about these religious/scientist/academic/showbiz types thinking that a modicum of talent and moderate expertise in their one little narrow discipline automatically carries over to any other subject matter they’d care to tackle...?

And that we, the great unwashed, hang with bated breath upon every golden word that issues forth from their actually ignoramus cake holes...?

Example: The recent “Demand A Plan” on YouTube...

Pampered “celebrities” who, each and every one, have and do presently make a lavish living acting in or producing the most violent, blood and gore, slash and shoot-’em-up “films” imaginable, and then have the gall to demand in turn that we produce a plan to end violence...

And imagine further, the “plan” these hypocrits “demand” mostly involves all of the rest of us disarming...

While they will continue as before, living secure in their gated communities, and traveling with an entourage of armed bodyguards...

The rest of us should demand that these “celebrities” and “experts” all STFU!

When we have the technology for violence easily to hand, our choices are skewed and we are more vulnerable to being manipulated into violent action,

Rowan makes two mistakes:

1. This then outlaws the "technology" of martial arts and boxing and also not only knives but even sticks or stones or bricks. It also means that a big guy like me should be "outlawed" too
   
2. In a no-guns society, the ones with the guns are criminals. in a free-gun society, the criminals will be wary because good people can fire back...
