Loughner declined from the army, but passed a background check to buy a gun?

Is it true? Do I really agree with Taxi ?? What is this world coming to.

I guess when you live in a country where people are not killed every day with guns you have a different perspective on the need for them in the first place.

But thats my point though, the fact that people are killed every day is like a vicious circle. People get killed often because guns are omnipresent so people get guns to defend themselves.

It was like when i was in New York, some jesus freak started to talk to me and my reaction was to do what i usually do in Montreal when some people who pass these latter day saints leaflets try to talk to me which is to poke a little fun at them for my amusement and move on (like telling them that I am god).

But then i remembered where i was, Queens NY and all of a sudden the thought that came into my mind was "this motherfucker might just stab you for saying that yeah you are prepared to take the chance to go to hell by not beleiving in god". So i rapidly steered cleared of stabbing distance and moved along quickly.

I understand some of the need and want of americans to defend themselves, i just think its a downward spiral and americans need a big soul searching if they dont want their society to implode like a black hole, although my opinion is that it might be a little too late for that.

Sadly, I've only met eurotools who pretend to give a damn about our problems because its trendy to do so. Wearing bush shirts, pins, stop the bomb/war/us. My question is -- what the hell are YOU doing about it?
