Definitely bad to have children involved with violence or guns. Unfortunately, the vocal pro-gun people like this guy often sound a lot like children, talking about "good guys" and "bad guys." Pretend gunslingers want to make believe so bad that things are that simple. People like George Zimmerman β definitely the good guys, right? Not at all trigger-happy, with questionable motivations, judgment, etc. Give 'em more guns!

Mental health, apathy about war and violence waged in other countries should at least be another component to this dialogue. Our country provides most of the guns in the world market. In 2011 the US sold 66.3 billion dollars worth of arms on the global market. 66.3 billion of the 85.3 billion sold all together globally (just to clarify, that means we sold over 3/4 of the arms world-wide). Gun regulation and gun de-regulation are not the only issues at hand. Yes, a good guy with a gun has a better chance of defending against a bad guy with a gun than another good guy without a gun. Its time to delve into this issue further. The discussions over the second amendment should not be washed away but other discussions are in order. Prevention is key and its much more than the debate on gun regulation/de-regulation that seems to flood my news streams.
