It's old stories, far from 21st century reality.
I'm from the North, living on a land called Canada, and from here this gun debate looks a little retarded!
But I think that if I lived in the United States, I'd certainly have in my possession several guns... because like in any other country on this little planet, half the population there are idiots... and they also have guns!! How can I trust them!?
I believe everyone should turn in their guns like a good Canadian, Put cameras up everyone's butt like a good Englishman. Ban working dog breeds like an hysterical city council and run around killing each other with machetes... by the millions... like a any good Rahwandan.
How's that work for you Miss Canada.
If you are stupid enough to trust your government or ANY government then you are the perfect subject of that government. But you are certainly not a free citizen as long as that government can do whatever it damn well pleases to you and yours. Only the young and naive lack the memory to recall how many millions of humans have died for the truth of true freedom. When you start trusting governments you have surrendered to those governments.
The argument that everything is different today than 200 years ago is a lie from the pit of hell. Human nature NEVER changes and those who can consolidate power and weaken the masses always have and always will abuse that power. It must be nice to live in a time where evil is considered dead and buried.
But believe me... evil is alive and well in the hearts of every human being. The only difference is that those with power can wield the sword of evil with a power never dreamed of by the individual. You think mass murder on the scale of the "Ultimate Solution" is impossible today? If so... history proves you the fool. Time and time again.
I pray you never see the day...
Like you, Miss Canada don't trust her government or any other government. Politics, power, money... whatever, corruption rules the world...
...always been like this.
But I have nothing to fear.
The "evil" you are talking about, I call it human nature. And of course human nature never changes...
...but times have changed and there is things we can deal different ways.
It will be war and death, but again, nothing to scare me.
In my freedom, there is no fear.
You don't need to loose your time praying for me...

And you think your college degree makes YOU smarter than all these people who saw that all governments are self seeking? You really are self inflated aren't you. 200 years ain't squat when it comes to human nature. You should really learn some history, because you are the type who would allow it to repeat itself by your apathy and "enlightened" mentality.
You can have your college degree, lot of knowledge, success, knowing all human history... but you can also be an idiot. It doesn't matter.
And it doesn't matter in what you believe, there are idiots on all sides.
You said: "But believe me... evil is alive and well in the hearts of every human being".
I will say: "But believe me, idiocy is alive and well in the brain of every human being".
... and by the way, I said this without any pretension.
You have the choice to not click on things or participate in discussions. It would be a different story if people were making political commentary on peoples images. But then again this is a site about artwork, and artwork is about freedom of expression. So I think people should express any opinion they want, whether its about killing puppies or even the "Richard Gere Hampster Rescue League" (That's going to be the name of my Hipster Ironic Rock band if I ever start one so don't steal it). I do agree people can get stupid about politics though (especially that Anfa guy) God bless the Queen! Cant we all just get along and drink a beer?
Not Cool! Just interested, what instrument will you be playing?
