Throw away the key

Another classic American story...According to MSNBC, "The mother of a 14-year-old who authorities say had a cache of guns, knives and explosive devices in his bedroom for a possible school attack was charged Friday with buying her son three weapons".

This women doesn't deserve a second chance...she should know better. Throw her in jail for a long, long time. End of story. Also, when is Americans going to get as pissed about this stuff as they did with the wardrobe malfunction during a Superbowl a couple of years ago. Yep, a simple glimpse of a breast caused Americans to go bonkers, caused legislatures to create laws raising indecency fines, caused the FCC to decide what I should or shouldn't watch. But what happens when kids/adults go on shooting sprees...nothing happens...not a single piece of legislation directed at gun control...NOTHING!!! Because in the words of Charlton Heston, former head of the NRA, "There are no good guns... there are no bad guns A gun in the hands of a bad man is a bad thing Any gun in the hands of a good man Is no threat to anyone except bad people". Makes sense...Yeah Right!

U2's Bono said it perfectly at one of their concerts I attended a few years back: "Six hundred and seventy six thousand Will go down in the streets of America With a bullet in the next 20 years 20 years, these bitter tears In a business of bitter tears.
