Shoot me first, baby.

Guns are a bad invention. No need to chop the head off, hack the limbs, and disenbowel anyone. Point, and click. Knowing that (or perhaps, not knowing that), some countries allow their citizens to have guns. Why? Oh, I dunno. Pleasure. Utility. Self-defense. At least usually, their usage are somewhat regulated. But that is clearly not the case in Florida, governed by a popular Bush person. Because now, you can shoot someone based on the fact that you feel endangered. Kind of like, pre-emptive strike. It should be a well-known fact by now, mental illnesses run in the family. Anyway. So the new law permits you to shoot, provided the fact that you fear for your own safety. Because obviously, if you have a gun, you feel much safer. You probably feel much safer also knowing every other guy walking on the street has a gun. And that if you get attacked, you won't get beaten and sent to the hospital with some injuries. No, you'll die, with your brain splattered on the wall because someone shot you. Definitely, so many arguments for keeping guns. While we're at it, I suggest the US removes all its laws. Why would you need law when you can maintain your law using a gun? It's the same thing with their foreign policy. Why respect agreements, conventions, contracts, sanity when you can pre-emptively strike someone, without retaliation?

For every fatal shooting, there were roughly three non-fatal shootings. And, folks, this is unacceptable in America. It's just unacceptable. And we're going to do something about it.

Which means that a 100 lb woman has a chance against a 220 lb man - what a concept.

Would she really have a chance though? You can argue that she can shoot first. Or, the 220lb man could shoot her before she sees the danger. Do not believe that having a gun is an advantage, if that advantage is offset by the fact that EVERYONE can have a gun.

Yeah, I think you summed it up pretty well yz. ^_^

It sure is one of the most stupid, naive, near-sighted laws out there.
Oh well.. guess that's how people learn. Through body count.
