"So, will you take away their right to vote? How about their driver's licence?"

Why, of course I would. Who knows how many people's throats they might slice with a paper ballot? And how many people do you know who own cars, who don't use them to kill at least something deliberately now and then?

Will you forgive me if that isn't a very civil reply? Our godson was always a decent young man, never in trouble with the law, never in any question as to "sanity". But there was always just an element of immaturity there. No one expected him to blow his wife's head off, then his own, with his late uncle's old 12 gauge. But no one who knew him close really said "no, no him, that's impossible".
