David Crosby busted for weed, knife and gun

This is an interview on gun control from his website.
BP: In your book you made it clear that you believe in the right of one to bear arms, to protect your property by the use of firearms. Does that mean that you do not believe in gun control? I’m specifically talking about Saturday night specials, assault……

DC: No, I don’t think there is any need for anybody to carry a gun in public. I don’t think there’s any need for anybody to own automatic weapons, I don’t think that – that you are a responsible human being if you leave guns around where kids can get to them. And, I think we have a problem in this Country with the culture surrounding violence. Our culture applauds violence, it wallows in violence, and that’s not good in a country with this many guns around. ‘Cause kids get given the wrong message. They think its all ketchup and the guy gets up again. They know you can shoot the lights out, they don’t realize you can’t shoot the lights back on. So, there’s a real problem there.

1. Teach Your Children
Hope this isn't true, but given his past, it probably is. We Boomers never grow up, do we?

5. I stopped at 11. Thought it was a great age, so 11 for the last 41 years.
Building forts, swimming all day, no puberty/girl problems yet, baseball (soccer in those days? Yecch), great friends, in when the streetlights came on, but old enough to enjoy trips, books (always loved 'em, including comics). Collecting baseball cards, watching the old sitcoms on the black and white, hanging with grandma, picking on my younger brother - Yep, I will take 11, thanks very much.

6. If you never grow up, you never grow old!
leastwise, that's how it seems to me....


(see: the Twilight Zone episode where the seniors in the old folks home believe going out to play 'kick the can' will make them young again, and it does....except for those who were afraid of appearing foolish and stayed in their rocking chairs....)

3. It would be cool if there were an...
...avatar for David Crosby so we could show our support for gun ownership.
