Gun Control?

I get pretty damn disgusted with the way that the general media shorthand of "gun control" gets blathered about. A gun is an inanimate object created by human ingenuity and inventiveness, the debate somehow leads to the impression that guns are a problem.

This is arrant nonsense, it's about time the debate shifted into reality. The problem is most definitely not the guns in and of themselves, it's a fucking HUMAN problem! The roots of this are in the nature of our system of government as laid out in the Second Amendment to the Constitution and our collective frame of mind as Americans coupled with who we are as a species living in a rather twisted world of our own creation. No amount of "feel-good, look-good" legislative or executive action that has, as its focus, guns, will do anything to address the underlying problem of our collective psychopathology in the 21st century.

I have no ready answers. Give me some time and I may be able to come up with suggestions.... meanwhile, lets quit with this simpleminded drivel about "gun control" lest I lose control of my gag reflex and go find a politician or pundit to spew my last meal on. I hate wasting a good meal.
