Hello Everybody,   
      
   GUN CONTROL!  OH MY GOD BARACK OBAMA IS GONNA TAKE MY GUNS AWAY!   
      
   Such is the cry of the NRA and their Republican lapdogs.   
   But Americans want the violence to end, and want that violence   
   to end now.  Arming Americans with more and more guns is not   
   the answer, as has been clearly demonstrated.  So what else   
   is there?  What else can be done?  GUN CONTROL!  And you   
   know what?  The results are shocking!   
      
   Apparently it's a working solution!  How many school shootings   
   in the USA in the past 16 years?   
      
   IN 1996, THERE WAS A SHOOTING AT A PRIMARY SCHOOL IN SCOTLAND.  16   
   CHILDREN AGES 5-6 WERE KILLED, ALONG WITH ONE TEACHER.  THE FOLLOWING   
   YEAR, THE UK BANNED THE PRIVATE OWNERSHIP OF ALL CARTRIDGE AMMUNITION   
   HANDGUNS, REGARDLESS OF CALIBER.  THERE HAVE BEEN NO SCHOOL SHOOTINGS   
   SINCE.   
      
   We cannot tolerate this any more.  It is time to take action,   
   and regain control over what is happening.  Americans are tired   
   of having their children killed at schools and movie theaters.
