PAX calls themselves a "non-political" organization. Yet, they are chipping away at privacy through kids "asking" and "telling" who has guns, a dangerous thing in itself. Schoolteacher: "let's talk about who has guns".

PAX fails to acknowledge that the problem isn't kids with guns; it's kids who apply their undisciplined behaviors learned from TV, including MTV who supports PAX, on top of real threats to their lives caused by failure to learn and practice civility and respect for others.

Watch out - PAX is a witch hunt coming soon to your neighborhood.

Holding this propaganda statement up to the meter:

The Center for Disease Control finds that over 30,000 children in America take a gun to school every day.

A-yep. That's what I figured...

As we've said, PAX is creating an entirely new approach to fighting gun violence. It's not about politics. It's about saving lives.

It's about saving lives? This asking if your neighbors have guns is about saving lives. If you find out your next door neighbor has a gun, CALL THE POLICE IMMEDIATELY!

The threat to our children from gun violence is very real. Over 3,700 children are killed in America by guns every year - that's more than 10 children every day.

If Pax was really interested in saving lives they should be informed that about 50,000 a year are killed in automobile wrecks. That over thirteen times the amount of people being killed in car wrecks. So what is a greater problem? Yeah, definately need to focus on the evil black guns.

"PAX has begun to generate significant momentum that, quite simply, must continue to build." (PAX)

PAX is no "grassroots" organization - just a front for HCI in the advertising and entertainment industries.

My suggestion to anyone asked by some parent if they own guns: just tell them it's no more their business than whether you own any of the many other things kids get hurt with, from darts (almost got my eye poked out at age five) to Mom's lighter.

Scandals of antigun politicians, activists, and lawyers

Wasn't that a tactic of the Youth for Hitler movement?
