It sounds to me that you're saying it's fubar, and legislation won't do any good. So, what is your opinion on what should be done about the gun violence in the U.S.?
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
