- Anything Else -

Don't pass the blame.

Ownership of guns can't be blamed for the violent state of society today anymore than ownership of cars can be blamed for the outrageous number of drunk-driving fatalities. Operation - not ownership - is where both problems start. Teaching others that murder is wrong, just like we teach that drunk-driving is wrong, is what needs to be done. But understand that neither of these things will stop gun(or any other form)violence or drunk-driving fatalities. In short, place the blame where it needs to be placed - individual irresponsibility.
