"Gun control"

I do not doubt that many people supporting more "gun control" in the wake of horrific tragedies do so with sincere concern and good intentions. However, I think it is important to consider what "gun control" actually means. Laws will be written by politicians, and then obedience will be coerced with the threat of gun violence by men and women in government uniforms. That means further aggression against people equally as innocent as the victims in Newtown.

The solution to this problem requires a radical change of hearts and minds. Until we as a society flatly reject the initiation of force, the vicious cycle will continue.
