ya gotta take peoples desire to use guns apart
guns are just objects

Those 12 year old boys who walked through mine fields to clear the way for the 20 year old boys on the Iraq / Iran border 20 years ago didn't carry guns, they wore the red scarves of martyrs

I know one thing for sure, humans crave stability, Oil and Pharmaceutal CEO's and on down the line, they want to live in a dream land, if their world is unstable, the silver ain't shinin in their eyes, then they tend to get pissy about it, have riots, shoot guns, take hostages, start wars, become martyrs, stuff like that.

Oh, I see the world as a big melting pot. I hope things simmer away hate and greed until we are all sick and tired of being sick and tired.
People would rather have a good time than kill. There is a way to take the pressure off of people. Solomon said, "Mopney is the answer to everything. Just for an example, "The deal Bush want to make with Iraq about the oil companies getting 75% of the profit from the oil won't stop the killing there. Give the oil companies 40% and Iraq might have a fighting chance since the oil does belong to the people.
I really believe what Kathy Matea sings in "God is Watching Us"-from a distance. Imagine no guns, bombs or deseases, which is the dream of every man.

Hey, I can't turn back time. But if I could, i would go back to Christerpher Columbus. And after he saw the Indians, find a way from him to say, Oh shit. We ain't ready for you all. See ya in a few hundred years.

Hey, just thinkin about these latter days, we are living in, since the gospel has been preached and trampled all over this world. I can't help thinking who Tom Paine would be careful to give offence to in these latter days. Tom said, the people who hold better to the Europian ways would be the cause of more calaminties to this continent than lots of other men Tom called cowards and such.
I can see lots of over regulation today. And I hope you all know Frank Zappa's words in the Slime oozing out of the tv set.
If Arlo says there is something wrong with demanding the Bomb comes apart, as he seemeed to think about other posts of mine, we both will deal with our diferences on another plane.
