why has no one commented on the murder stat going down every listed year?
also, the whole idea of freedom for humanity is a new thing that came up in the 1700's with that whole enlightenment period of western civilization. so has it been universal if it's just a relatively recent thought by western thinkers? this is something I think about and am curious of other's responses.
as for guns, they've gone from a necessity for living in terms of providing food and protection from threats to something that's under gone massive commodification. this nation is the best at commodification and people keep buying it up bit by bit. having a gun or not doesn't prevent anything from happening to an individual. gun's sold as a protective device that's bought and sold, and now the protection of the protective device must be bought (NRA donations). we all keep getting suckered hard. sucks, and a .45 is just damn fun to shoot.
