Where do we stand when the punishment for having a car full of street sweeper's and assault rifles is less than having a few pounds of marijuana. Does are country need to manufacture enough guns to arm every man, woman, and child in the USA with 2 to 3 guns. While living in S. Florida it was so easy and cheap to get a gun. Instead of getting in fistfights, everyone would just threaten each other with guns. Example: one of my friends stood up to some white power skinsheads at a show and they came back and shot him seven times. If you look at U.K. vs. U.S., the number of people killed by guns is so lopsided it's almost funny. Imagine if the U.K. gave their citizen's access to guns, their homicide and crime rate would go through the roof. Why can't we just beat the shit out of each other U.K. style and screw all this gun shit. I can see why back over 100 years ago, the right to bear arms was established. Times were more barbaric and law enforcement was very little. Are country is no longer comparable to "Little house on the prairie" or "Bonanza". The lone settler in the great frontier protecting his family against outlaws is kind of unheard of now. Most of the guns used in crimes are stolen from people who buy them legally. I had friends in gangs and they where more likely to break into houses that had guns. That's what I say to people that say there protecting themselves. That's great but when your guns get stolen, you just supplied them with the guns to kill someone else. So I would like to thank you. I read in the local newspaper that their going to ban black trench coats at the schools, what and the hell is that going to solve? Here are some ideas I came up with real quick.

(1) How about cutting down the production of guns in the U.S., especially hand guns?

(2) Make the punishment for the transportation and sale of guns to minors worse than drugs.

(3) Parents need to stop using the T.V. as a babysitter.

(4) Rather than censor and ban stuff from kids. Why not instead have discussions with them about the matter. Example if their into Marilyn Manson, ask them why???? Manson is just another corporate vehicle with a made up image, making a lot of money for the man off you. Marilyn Manson is just a really good businessman. Blaming Marilyn Manson for the acts done in Littleton is a copout anyway. Just like Ozzy and Judas Priest causing suicide in the 80's.

(5) I know that jocks and others in high school are mean as hell and a bunch of total assholes. But that doesn't mean go to school heavily armed and kill innocent people.

(6) Are society is totally obsessed with violence. Are society views material of sexual content worse than violence.

This is my opinion and please email me if you have anything to add/comment.
