I have to agree with Girlie on this one.
I and a lot of people in Europe have always been wondering about why americans have to have guns just because they have the right to do so.
Here in Finland allmost nobody has guns, only at the countryside where people hunt they have riffles. And one has to have a hunting permit to be allowed to hunt. Nobody has any automatic or semi-automatic guns here. I don't think one could even get a legal AK-47 here. And I think that's good.
Every once in awhile you hear these horrorstories from US about some kids that have shot their friends in school. That's horrible. Do you think that this would happen if nobody had guns, if it wasn't so easy to get one?
I understand that you are all great parents and you teach your kids how to handle weapons the right way, but kids do stupid things, no matter how good we teach them. And accidents happen too. I can just imagine how great it would have been for me, when I was a kid, to show my daddys gun to some mates of mine. And who knows what would have happened.
Now when we have never had a gun in the house the most stupid thing I ever did was fuck the ugliest girl in town.
Don't get me wrong here, I don't critices any of you, this is just my opinion.
Make love, not war. =)
