To be fair, sounds like the kids might have caught a break in this one.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Despite Mimimalist my disagreement. I think guns should be out of the hands of mental ill people.....it is to big a temptation.
I would be a televangelist....but I have too much of a soul.

I went to the range this morning and did some target practice.
I didn't shoot myself or anyone else.

They are all "responsible" gun owners until that one fuck up. There is the problem with having too many guns laying around.

No argument.
But guns are not as necessary as cars in our society. Other highly-industrialized nations manage fine without every shitwit walking around with a gun.
People think jesus wants them to beat their kids.
And most drunk drivers are repeat offenders. We've all done it. Some just get caught.
