Gun control?...

It goes without saying that there has been an increase in public shootings in recent years, but is  taking guns away the real answer? Are guns the problem, or are people the problem? I tend to believe that the problem lies with the human condition. Lets pause a moment and reflect on some good old elementary common sense. when I was a kid, I shot my sister with a BB gun. When my parents took it away, I hit her with rocks. Taking away my BB gun didn't change how I felt about my sister when I was mad. I found an alternative way to hurt her.
   There are a lot of material things that cause harm and death. Suicide bombers frequently use cars to blow up people. Should all the cars be confiscated? Cult leaders have used poison to kill a mass number of people, does that mean that we should ban all chemicals? Just as cars and chemicals are very useful . Guns have a purpose as well. If people walked in buildings and started beating people over the head with baseball bats, would politicians take our baseball bats away? Well, I think I have made my point about that. However, The state of peoples character and moral boundaries is something that should be the bigger concern. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, well here's mine.Poison,cars and guns all come with owners manuals to educate us on the proper way to get the most out of them. We humans have a users manual as well, It's called the bible. God created us and knows what is best for us. All we have to do is follow His instructions. In fact, if everyone, including all anti-Christian folks,actually followed the directions layed out by God our creator, the world would not have "terrorism" because we would all love each other and get along. In fact, there would be no homeless problem, no murder, no affairs ,no assaults ,no theft, no cheating,etc. etc. If you are one of those folks who doubts what I say, just give it a try,you might find that there really is a solution to the worlds problems and find  that there still is light through all  the darkness!
