G'day all - DMA, the devil is in the details. I do not think our founding fathers have ever envisioned the fire power one can obtain from your friendly local gun shop. Per chance, have you seen the 60 minute segment Watch the next broadcast of 60 Minutes on Sunday, February 14th at 7:00PM ET/PT (Check local listings). Taking Aim At The Gun Industry When the undercover police Chicago Mayor Richard Daley sent into gun stores posing as criminals came out with all the firepower they wanted, it confirmed his worst suspicions. Now he's using that evidence in a $433 million lawsuit against the gun ndustry. Mike Wallace reports. Jonathan Wells is the producer. As Jerard rightly pointed out in one of the preceding posts, that "the fly swatter swated both ways," IMHO, it is better to determine this kind of contemporary issues with pragmatism [which is, btw, an american heritage just as much.] To allow unprecedented firepower in the wrong hand in the name of 2nd Amendment is no better a justification to allow child pornography in the name of 1st Amendment [of course, I am using extreme cases to make a point, but I certainly do not advocate extremism.] best, Bosco
