When you work people to death for low wages, stress them out, take away their hope, and then sell them a deadly weapon, you are asking for trouble.
I'm all for fighting economic inequality in America, but let's not be stupid and hold out for that getting resolved when people aren't safe right now for being denied an effective means of defending themselves - they don't have decades to wait. Anyway, I thought that Utopia masturbation was equally ideological to religious ideas. If we can improve this world at all, it will likely take many years.
Mr. Hanky loves you!
