  "peel a potato" pretty near, that's why they invented the Spud Gun a 
 long time ago they weren't too thrilling even for a 5 year old.

  It's also not worth it...but now we have legal gun generating a revenue

  Actually robbing a bank these days is easier than the range

 have 
 a gun, and oddly enough they get away with it, since the public is not gun 
 wise, 
 and all that.

  So you are Generally implying that you will get rid of 600million+ guns 
 once and for all, that's impossible...it is easier to get rid of all the 
 cars 
 in 
 the city.
