In reply to the discussion: Let's ban the word "gun" from DU [View all]The Straight Story
(48,121 posts)3. Meh. Lets ban all guns. Start with the military and police first (they are, after all, folks like us
just in different jobs). Then we can ban them from private security companies.
Or, I dunno, maybe we just want the few who control the many to own them? And perhaps they love spreading fear (like with 'terrorists') to further erode our rights?
Naw, it's just folks like me and you that shouldn't be trusted.
