You're write, maybe not the best way to put it. Doing that sort of thing is obviously wrong, and I wasn't getting at the idea we should actually do it. I was more so thinking of it as how people gain more perspective in a near-death experience, but what I said was a bit stupid. Don't listen to me, i'm a shit head. I am a bit emotional at the time though, and it does cloud my judgement. Maybe the people stopping gun laws from helping stop gun violence have some kind of perspective i'm lacking, i just don't know what kind of perspective that could. |
Fair enough. I don't know the details of this latest shooting, I always prefer to let the dust settle before immersing myself in the details. But my standard for new gun laws is: Would they have prevented past crimes and how would they have affected law-abiding gun owners?
