GodDAMMIT! We can't just switch sides, you know? This is politics, not country-dancing.
Well I still don't think there's any sort of pressing need for gun control and I have lots of guns, but I don't think they're somehow extremely important to protect our society. The two extremes I can't tolerate are the people who say Canada is a horrible despotic nation because they restrict handguns, or the people who think, say, England would become wildly dangerous if they allowed people to own handguns or use them in self-defense. Both extremes are hyperbolic nonsense.
