Guns.....good or bad?:
In my personal opinion, guns are bad.  They should be used only by law enforcement officials and not ordinary citizens.

I lost my brother due to an accident involving a gun, and knowing that just anyone nowadays (depending on where you live) can purchase a firearm without even obtaining a license in some cases, makes me cringe with frustration and disbelief!

I've just recently seen a report on the TV news that claims that even owning a fake gun such as the now-famous 'paint-ball guns' can lead to serious violence and even death.  

In some cases, people were accidentally killed or seriously injured while playing among themselves.  In other cases, they were mistakenly shot by police who believed they had pointed a real gun at them...

Let's leave guns in the hands of those who know how to use them in order to protect law-abiding citizens everywhere!
