    [soapbox]I believe handguns are banned in the UK. In terms of the US, I think we should maybe try to better enforce the laws that are actually on the books. People who drink and drive (trust me, this is going somewhere!) often face stiff penalties, jail time, and license suspension or even revocation. Yet, how many times do you hear of someone "with a suspended license" in a hit and run who kills someone? Is the answer to ban all cars?

    OUT here in Hollyweird, an actor Shia Laboef, La Beef?(Who names these idiots?) wrecked while driving under the influence. He rolled his truck twice but will not be charged because someone else caused the accident!

    Japan is another 'gunless' country.

    But that didn't keep the wacko that killed and injured 21 people with a car and a knife from doing what he did... What about the Greyhound killer? This gun lops off a fellow passenger's head while tripping thru Canada. The stabbing epidemic in England was another stunner.

    ------

    You are way correct about the laws being as worthless as the paper they are printed on. In L.A. we are in the process of figuring our a papparazzi law to protect the stars from the thundering hordes of photographers-probably to protect them from the law suit when they kill someone trying to get away.

    We also have a law keeping any fast food businesses from being built in a low income area of the city because people cannot make good food choices. We have another law banning fats in food.


    We also have an 'anti assault gun' law on the books. Why? I don't know. That didn't help out the cops in the North Hollywood shootout. Matter of fact-that was the only time that the cops were ever challenged since that law passed-and that was because of their ammo, the guns and the magazines-and before that it was 1974 with Patty Hearst and her band of brothers.

    The one psycho will always take a few guns and go on a rampage. Or knifes or cars or what about the two instances of the heavy machinery that was used in Israel. You can kill anyone with anything.

    We just haven't learned to kill each other with kindness
