i know, that's my point. we can't have a normal conversation about what is reasonable, so everyone retreats to extreme position.

"take all the guns away!" "pried from my cold, dead fingers!" not a good way to figure out solutions to very real tragedies.

welcome to democracy nice of you to join us

there are no solutions, there is only advancing the interests of your chosen faction
-
it requires a powerful sovereign not beholden to factional interests to chose a Best Option from among those available to him
-
what we have is factions forever competing to accrue power, not a figure reasonably secure in his power who is thus enabled to actually govern
-
thus the obvious correct strategy for any interest group is to go as extreme as public opinion will tolerate so as to drag the center in your direction

do you actually support free and open access to predator drones? no rules presumably nukes are a good idea too, b/c effective govt stoppers?
