I don't make a lot of personal posts so please bear with me. #Rufus hasn't been doing well for the past week or so. I mean, he's 13 (at least), and has slowed down due to age, but the past week or two he's been acting like every movement is a Herculean effort. A few times in the past couple of weeks his rear legs have given out on him completely to where I've had to pick him up and carry him which is, in itself, telling. Rufus has always hated being carried and struggled continuously when I did so. Yesterday while petting him I noticed two golf-ball sized things up under his chin. Now, they may be benign lipomas as Rufus is covered with them (one one each thigh, one on each shoulder, one on his chest and a few smaller bumps here and there) or they may be indicative of something else. I'm no vet and aside from emergency medic battlefield training I have no medical experience whatsoever, but these new things seem to be where your or mine lymph nodes are located....

Offcourse giving every teaparty aproved citizen a gatling in his backyard would make the suburban city streets save again but what about the enviromental impact, did they invent green bullets and gunpowder already?
my guess is all weapons will be banned before 5 years, it just takes some more killings by paranoid crazies. Better start lobying against those pharmacompanies that are feeding you those mass murder pills if you wanna hang on to your secondamendments toys.
Oh, and I wouldn't have to put it in a van. I could bring it into any public building without any questions, find an out of the way place to leave it, and at a preset later time when I was far away...
Guns are easy, so the nutjobs use them and get caught or die. A bunch of people also get hurt or die. Make guns impossible to get and the criminally insane will either find a way to get them anyway or they will find a way to be much, much worse, with less chance of stopping them.
People who hate guns tend to be people who would only hurt other people in a fit of passion. These people cannot wrap their heads around the concept of taking time to learn how to, then build something for the sole purpose of hurting others. No matter how many times a new psychopath shows them that there is evil in the world, they cannot grasp the concept. It's like asking an antelope what bacon tastes like-- even though many of its herd have been eaten by predators, the antelope cannot comprehend the desire to eat another animal.
This has been way longer than I intended.
