I looked all over the forums to find the right place for this. I was not able to determine where it fit so it lands here. I thought it was interesting so maybe some of you will to.
A friend who was born in India was very frank when he described to me how little people matter in his country. Killing people (while illegal) isn't as taboo as western society, and often questions aren't asked, or are just ignored (basically the family just figures out a montary value that should be paid as compensation). Intimidation, bribery, violence and worse are all considered part of daily routine, and are certainly implemented as common business practices.
Of course I am not condoning violence, but these people deserve a chance to make a buck (or rupee) and the tools to defend themselves - hell, one of them could be the next Sam Colt!
The only sure way to stop gun violence is to ban PEOPLE! Without people, guns will be able to live in peace and harmony and not have to worry about being melted down by some peace activist.
What, you guys are too young to remember "zip" guns made from car antenna's?
People cannot do that anymore. Most car antennas are solid these days. But I do remember when no self respecting hood would be caught dead without a zip gun. And sometimes with one. =(;-)
Long windproof fuse, a little b powder in plastic bag, then burlap sack and a sling shot would do worse.
They are good healers. They just found out Curcumin, a extract of Turmeric, kills cancer. Stock up.
