I hate to disagree, but strict gun control isn't going to do much to keep
the guns out of the hands of people. Drugs are actually illegal, yet kids
these days have better access to drugs in schools than they do guns. Gun
control might help, but it won't solve anything in the long run. Don't get
me wrong .. I'm no fan of the NRA, but I don't believe in gun control for
the sake of preventing violence alone. It just isn't going to work.
Growing up, I played violent video games, watched violent shows on TV, had
toy guns, played war with my buddies and all of that. I also had access to
guns and even personaly owned a few. I had my share of run-ins with bullies
in highschool, but I *never* felt compelled to take a gun to school and blow
some people away for the hell of it.
So .. if I have guns and the kid down the street has guns and he kills a
bunch of people and I don't, what's the difference? It's not the guns.
I'll say its 50% nature and 50% nurture ... that's what it *really* boils
down to.
