If it is the case that we have to control tools (which is all guns are) that can cause grave and serious harm then I propose that we also practice,
“Friend of the Court control”
I guarantee you that teachers, ministers, lawyers, doctors, shrinks, social workers, and friends of the court have each and all done far more harm to people as tools that are out of control (they are the tools of the humanists) than guns have done over the last 35 years.
In point of fact, if it is our desire to ban tools that can cause grave and serious harm then why not just ban Humanism, Marxism, Romanticism, Transcendentalism, Nihilism, Existentialism, Post-Modernism, etc. and all forms of nutcase occultism? (Let’s throw in Roman Catholicism, Pentecostalism, R2K’ism, Dispensationalism, and Baptist-ism just to be really safe.)
Of course, tools are only as good as the people handling the tools and with some tools, unlike guns, (see list in paragraph above) it is not possible to handle them safely. I’d rather my grandchildren go hunting with the two nutcases that shot up Columbine High School (if that were possible) than sit in a classroom with a typical University educated school teacher or sit in church under a typical Seminary-trained minister. I’ll take my chances with the guns.
