    In minds crammed with thoughts, organs clogged with toxins, and bodies stiffened with neglect, there is just no space for anything else.

    Many people compare Edward Snowden to me unfavorably for leaving the country and seeking asylum, rather than facing trial as I did. I don’t agree. The country I stayed in was a different America, a long time ago.

    Good people do not need laws to tell them to act responsibly, while bad people will find a way around the laws.

    Plato explains why gun/knife/whatever laws are stupid. You don't need to worry about law abiding people having X. And the people that will do bad with X don't care about laws.

    Thanks George, it is good to be here and make some posts. I know that I need to go slowly for a time.

    That is the spirit zombie67. We have so many weapons in our world that maybe we don't need the so called weapons and usually known for that name.

    Bad people will find a way to change a car, a truck or a plane in attack weapons, bad people will find a way of changing manure into explosives while good people will find a way to use real weapons on construction tools for a better world.

    You will never do anything in this world without courage. It is the greatest quality of the mind next to honor.
