People trying to defend Manson you must be kidding. I lived in the sixties and at no time did I ever feel like there would be an all out war between the blacks and the white. We had one bad incident in high school when thing came dangerously close to be a riot between the whites and blacks but we got together the most influential students of both colors and worked it out.

As for the gun laws Fresh Chop you are doing exactly what you are accusing Knox of doing pointing out a few incidents to make your side of the argument right. Sorry but there is nothing you can do to make me change my mind due to the number of incidents with kids. Yes I have had friends with guns, I've shot rifles, shotguns and pistols and yes target shooting is a blast but I would give up that fun in a heart beat to save kids as well as spouses who get shot first than the coward turns and shoots himself. Yes drug abuse is certainly the main contributing factor that's why imo all drugs should be legalized but that's a whole other subject/can of worms.
