I have a couple of friends who run a website called Armed with Reason and one of them just got published in the Atlantic.

Coolcoolcool about your friends getting published.

Gun control. Phew. I actually saw an episode about this on 20/20 two weeks ago (I know, I know, not exactly the epitome of news reporting...it was a slow Friday night...well every Friday night is slow for me, but now I'm digressing). I'm not an expert on the subject by any means, but I don't really get the need, in the sense that the people who are really pushing to own guns definitely don't need them in the neighborhoods they live in. Like, I've lived in Ultra-White Suburbia, I've seen both sides of the coin. There's a very low chance some hoodlum is going to pick your giant house out of hundreds to try and break into or whatever.

Then again, that's just my experience in Colorado, so I could be wrong about the rest of the US.
