In fact, we should organize our entire society around everyone owning a gun, or at least the indisputable fact that many people own guns—sometimes many guns—and we often have no idea who they are or whether they are sane. Even if you choose not to participate in American gun culture, your life should be oriented around avoiding gruesome death at the hands of someone who does. We should design all of our institutions and our buildings to account for the fact that anyone could show up, at any time, to kill people with the deadly weapons they easily acquired, as this phenomenon is completely inevitable.
Just ask Fox News,...

"In the future, everyone will own a gun...and have it on them at all times."
And the world will be a better place. Just ask Robert Heinlein.
Oh, wait... you can't - he be deyud.

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
