G*d be with,and bless his Mom and Dad, the pain and grief must be gut-wrenching. Lost a daughter a long time ago, needlessly, and it is still a rock in my chest.
I lost a potential son to a vehicle/pedestrian accident quite a while back. My wife still has dreams and cries in her sleep. All I can do is hold her and grieve with her.
I did take a look at some of the shotgun approaches that were listed and found one worth checking out the 105 responses to.
My comment is #106
I do believe that the use of good sense is the key to safe handling of any of the dangerous items, including firearms, y'all have mentioned. You will notice; I used the phrase "good sense" rather than "common" sense as "good" sense seems, obviously, to not be very common these days.
A firearm is a tool and it is only as dangerous as the person whose finger is on the switch. If the person attempting to operate the tool is incapable, due to age, mental or emotional incompetence, or other limiting factors of operating the tool in a responsible manner, that person should not be allowed by responsible persons to operate the tool. "You must be this high to ride this ride".
One would think that drain cleaner would have only one use, however back in the early '70s an innovative East Dallas pimp forced one of his "girls" to drink drain cleaner. Turned out to be a pretty effective homicide weapon.
Another Dallas "girl" was killed by a "john" who asphyxiated her by stuffing toilet paper down her throat.
The government wasn't there to protect the whores and it won't be there to protect you either. Even if the legislature does decide to pass laws banning firearms, drain cleaners, and/or toilet paper.
Anti-gunners, if you don't want a gun, don't buy one. Just don't attempt to force your opinion (and that's all it is) onto me. And, if the occasion ever arises where your life is in danger please don't call me for help because I would bring my gun for my own self protection and I surely wouldn't want to offend you by possessing it in your presence.
Pro-gun people, quit trying to convince the anti-gunners of the error of their ways. You'll only be wasting your time and will succeed only in pissing them off.
Mr. Springer, You wrote a fine article and backed it up with impressive statistics as well as logical argument, however statistics and logic have about as much impact in resolving the gun controversy as in settling matters of religion.
