Silly d_i_s ----- don't you know that the ONLY way to reduce violence in the U.S. is to get rid of the evil gunz?! C'mon now......wake the hell up! Ask intelligent questions!



Of course the dishonesty of The Controllers is made clear not only by the questions that they ask, but those they don't.

"Tell me Pablo -- what is a gun designed to do?"

If they truly gave a good goddamn about the victims of gun violence they wouldn't give a rat's backside what guns are designed to do, but would focus exclusively on what guns actually do -- and who is using them nefariously.

The foaming hysteria over "assault weapons" is of course the most conspicuous example of Controller dishonesty -- given that they're rifles which are NOT more lethal than other semi-autos, and are rarely used in crime.
