More on Guns

I just read two editorials linked from the CNN web site.

One said that we ought to drop the gun culture entirely. The other said that we ought to embrace it fully.

The first held that being part of a gun culture encourages violence, encourages the use of weapons to resolve problems.

The other held that so long as there ARE weapons, only a fool would believe that limiting or banning weapons was a good idea.


I agree with the first. And I understand the logic of the second. Don't agree with it, but I understand it.

What I need is a way to control or eliminate the use of weapons by maniacs and the criminal, while allowing it for anyone else -- kind of like a Breathalyzer for guns.
