[QUOTE]Originally posted by bX: [QB] Well golly, if we're going to be compared to the likes of Bulgaria and Armenia. I mean, we're practically the same place. Hell, Colombia's practically a 51st state at this point. I guess if it could be worse there's no reason for us to try to make it better. For our wealthy, first-world society, I live in a fairly bad neighborhood here in San Jose. Not a lot of drug-lord assassinations or rocket-attacks, but I've had transients wander in, and there have been repeated attempts to break in. I won't own a gun. Not for self defense. Personally I'm a bit freaked out by something where it's so easy to accidentally kill someone. I have swords. It's harder to kill someone accidentally with a sword. So we're clear, in as far as my personal gun-control position: I'm not saying we should take away all the guns. I know that's never going to happen, and what's more, I don't think it should happen. But I'm all for making damned certain that people who wish to have a lethal capacity, are qualified and competent to own an item whose primary function is to kill. I have no doubt that the gun owners/enthusiasts on this board, like the millions of responsible gun owners in this country would have no problem demonstrating such capacity. Wouldn't it be better to know, though? [/QB][/QUOTE]
