    I don't follow. Are you suggesting places like England have failed societies?

Pardon my lack of clarity. You can limit individuals access to guns, but not dangerous items.

    The suggestion is not to encase humanity in giant pillows.

That's going to be a suggestion eventually. Seriously, people joke about it but if we keep up the track we're on it will be bubble-wrap undies for everybody.

    There is no other form of deliberate violence that equals what a gun can do with the ease a gun can do it.

I'm glad we got to the meat of a sensible debate about firearm regulation. Which I am all for, in the same way that I am for the regulation of the operation of motor vehicles.
