Skyrad 0 #47 January 3, 2008 What a disapointment. I was hoping to see a interesting debate on this subject to which I have an open mind. Instead I see its turned into the usual pissing contest. I did listen to the entire interview, (I thought it was pretty bloody rude the way they just played adverts over you speaking without even mentioning they were going to a break, (or maybe they are just that unprofesional). I didn't hear you answer the question that I asked and I've got better things to do than listen through it again to hear a sound bite answer or waste time searching through one of your web sites. I'm not going to bother with this thread again its a waste of time. .....Door closes.When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy.

Can you name a few societies that have reduced violent crime by implementing less stringent gun control laws? There isn't really an argument regarding this hypothesis. How can you be so certain allowing students to carry won't cause even worse problems? Whilst I recognise your argument and respect it, what I find worrying is your insistance of being correct and how you also come across as 'all knowing' in a matter you cannot possibly be.
