Thanks for posting stringman. But alas you can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink. Here is one more example of what has been happening here for quite a while now. This is Denver, Colorado in 2009.
New, fully automatic weapons—weapons that reload automatically and fire continuously with one trigger pull—have been banned for civilians in the United States since the Firearm Owners' Protection Act of 1986. AR15 are semi automatic. They look like a military weapon but shoot like a hunting rifle with a large clip.
Greg I live in a town of about 60,000 people, probably half of the population owns guns.We have maybe an average 5-6 murders per year. Big majority of those are domestic disputes and sometimes knives are used as well as guns. Overall the crime rate is pretty low and home invasions are kept to an absolute minimum. Guns aren't the problem, disturbed people are the problem.
Obviously you do need to watch it. It's your fellow countrymen explaining what happens when a country allow their guns to be taken away. Afraid of having your eyes opened?
That wouldn't be my first choice, however I have seen a documentary on Kenneth Good. A white anthropologist who was studying the Yanomami tribe in South America. Anyway the chief offered him a bride and he took her. He took he back to a city later, but she couldn't adapt and went back to the jungle. Google it, it's pretty interesting.
RE: Is gun control the solution to these unspeakable tragedies?
Need more proof little Ralphy I can do this all day.
