Gun control is like trying to reduce drunk driving by making it tougher for sober people to own cars.

they would put guns on the back burner and concentrate, instead, on getting teenagers off the road. In a country where millions of adolescents are encouraged to start driving cars—cars fueled by a deadly mixture of gasoline and high-octane hormones—

This couldn't me more true to me. I have to go to the funeral home today for one of our employees only child. 17 year old daughter.

Gun control has never been, never well be about crime control.

All the crime control talk is just one excuse to try and disarm the people.

Gun control has and always will be about people control.

Disarm the people and you can control them leave them armed and you can not control them.

With a kazillion guns already in circulation, Brady Bill or no Brady Bill, I'm afraid we'll never again see the day that criminals have to make do with rocks and sharp sticks.

Something to keep in mind is that in the days of rocks and sharp sticks, the thugs ruled. Firearms makes things a lot more equal for people who want to just live in peace with their neighbors.

"Of far greater concern to me are the yahoos driving around in those lethal, over-sized, gas-guzzling, lane-straddling sport-utility vehicles. Armed with a feisty attitude and a few tons of steel, every soccer mom has become a full-fledged menace.."

Amen. I drive a small sedan, and it used to be just the wild eyed punks and gang bangers who would come up behind me in menacing fashion to make love to my Chevy's tailpipe. Now I often look back and I see an SUV driving woman with a cell phone growing out of her ear.

Can someone direct me to the government office where I can apply for a pemit to write my opinion in this forum and exercise my first amendment right. Do I need to take a "writing safety course" and is it not legal to write while "concealed?"
