Time... You make a good case; plus — I had overlooked the rapid turnover in the military. Maybe it’s now or never — but, a lone 75-year-old out in the boonies has little influence on such things... :-(
Gun Violence: What Can Be Done to Save LivesWhich is it - do you want to reduce gun violence, or do you want to reduce violence and save lives?If all you care about is gun violence, just pass a law saying violence committed without a gun is OK. Then anyone who wants to commit violence will go to some trouble to do so without a gun, if possible.
Im not saying that under a law like that criminals might not crucify you - but at least they wouldnt be using guns to do it. </sarcasm>
Ever notice that cops can take down a dog with a small number of rounds, but can’t bring down a criminal unless they fire off 172 rounds?
Just a thought.
