guns are purposely designed to kill

the argument about cars killing is specious; no one engineers a car to see how many people it can plow down in a matter of seconds

how many children have stolen their parents' car, then driven it into their schools in order to kill as many classmates as possible?

Why do we insist in having objects whose sole purpose is to kill, available to children?

McGrath, interesting question. I am sure people would freak out and tackle you as a crazy man if you showed up at customs that way.

Any kind of combat/killing needs to involve up close and personal....long range allows desensitisation and a surreal impersonality which are antisocial.
