what I fail to understand is those who are in favor of gun control, against guns, don't have a gun, could care less if they ever see a gun or what ever other group I may have missed.......
why is the fact that we have a more degraded morality than most of us grew up with, we have a lack of respect for the law than most of us grew up with, violence, murder, mayhem and mass killing are promoted in today's entertainment i.e. the movies, television, games, etc, there is a significant lack of discipline in our society and a fear of doing so than any of us grew up with,.......and yet there is little or no discussion of how all the new permissiveness contributes to and promotes a tolerance for violence.

I personally believe it is because when one is against guns for example it is usually about the OTHER GUY and not ones self. In looking at making changes to the permissiveness that condones violence the same folks are involved. And would be affected, therefore there is little or no discussion or demand for change.

My usual example Mothers Against Drunk Drivers.....they have little or nothing to lose or not personally involved with drinking and we all understand the positive impact.

Where are the Mothers Against Driving WHile Using a Cell phone???? Far too many deaths caused by this activity....some would say as much or more than drinking. Why no groundswell to be against such a potentially killing activity? Because now these same mothers are personally involved and are themselves major users of cell phones while driving....hence they are silent on the issue. Very hypocritical behavior.

Bring on what ever makes everybody happy with controls they have no understanding of....there will be no decrease in gun ownership....there will be no change in the violence permissive society.....it will not eliminate the small percentage of wackos (for what ever reason or ills) from accomplishing their need to kill or mass murder.
