@chanesteiner Given population explosion I don't see an alternative and "self-governance" does not work for nation-states of 300+ million.

@emlynaddison We can't sacrifice our liberty under any circumstances. Limited government would work.

@emlynaddison Ignoring the disturbing amount of mental health issues & instead focusing on inanimate objects is incomprehensible to me.

@chanesteiner Said "inanimate objects" empower said mentally disturbed with the means to take others' lives. Why is that incomprehensible?1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@emlynaddison Because the mentally disturbed will find other inanimate objects. Their disturbance is the problem, not the objects.

@chanesteiner This is a _fundamental_ misinterpretation. Killing rampages aren't accomplished with knives, batons, poison or cars.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@chanesteiner I think this is fallacious thinking. How do you kill 26 Newtowners, then take your own life, in 5 minutes--without a gun?1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@emlynaddison One could drive a car into a crowd of people and easily kill more than that in less time.

Same day as the Newtown rampage, but NO FATALITIES.
