Gun Free South Africa

There was a discussion on the radio this morning about a organisation called Gun Free South Africa. They are aiming to stop toy guns to be given to children. So naturally our very intelligent DJ (Gareth Cliffe) gave us his 2c worth opinion and said that giving a child a toy gun is not going to make him / her a criminal. He also said that keeping guns from children is not going solve anything, as they see guns on TV and they know they are around, so we are not guarding them from guns. Once again the stupid blond had missed the point. The point is not to stop them from becoming gangsters, the point is by not introducing our children to guns from a young age, we could possible create a society where adults believe that guns are dangerous and kill people, but that it is something that they don't want or need in their lives. Nobody is trying to guard children from guns or trying to manipulate their gangster tendencies. Organisations like these are working towards creating a culture of where we reject guns in our lives. To top it all, some wanker from Parow or the East Rand no doubt, called in and said he will never give up his gun because the criminals are waiting for people to give up their guns so they can attack. WAKE UP YOU IDIOT. How do you think illegal guns get to go into circulation. A doos like you gets mugged and your gun gets stolen from you!!!!

I get very upset with gun wielding freaks. I think guns are the second most destructive invention ever, and the inventor should have been hanged for which craft before they patented the gun. The first is of course the atomic bomb, and they should have been locked up in stead of given a Nobel prize.

And in case anybody wonders, I grew up with guns in our home and my father and I went hunting often so I know my way around a gun....I still hate them.
