Let's ban the word "gun" from DU

[The Straight Story]

13. True. When my son was in Iraq we trusted him with a gun

When I was a cop people did too (well, deputy, same thing).

Only difference is the clothes people wear to some extent. See that same person with a gun, not and work, and have no idea what they do for a living we instantly judge them based on what less than 1% of people who own guns do with them.

It's a bias thing. Me, you, others are not as equal as others because we don't trust our fellow citizens (unless they put on a uniform or a suit and tie). If a wealthy/famous person has armed body guards people think nothing of it. Poor person owns a gun and goes out two days a year hunting deer, he's bad.

People in power love seeing us not trust each other. They profit off of it and still get to do the things they don't want to allow us to do (from skipping airport security lines to guns to being able to travel anywhere to get an abortion for themselves or a loved one...the laws are meant to apply to the many by the few).
