At the risk of calling out the trolls, I will post this anyway. I just wish you to read this well thought out response to the question of gun control on many people's minds. I read it all the way through and I agree with nearly all of it. It has made me reconsider several stances I had on guns. I encourage you to read it and consider carefully what it says. Here is the link.  I hope it will help you.  The Riddle of the Gun, by Sam Harris NOTE: I will not respond to questions or comments, as I don't need to defend Sam's words, nor do I have the interest in the emotions it brings up. It is not an attack nor is it an endorsement. I am *sharing* this to help educate my friends on guns and to help them make informed choices should they be involved with any legislation regarding it. I reserve the right to delete angry or hateful comments that people feel compelled to post as soon as I see them, either here or on any other forum where I link to this post.  That is what your feed/blog is for, so go post them there.ÂI am non-tolerant in this regard. Serenity Always, Chris
