Well today, to start off english class, I decided that it would be a good day to bring up the topic of gun control. Now, he owns a couple of guns but doesn't generally support them.
I decided to show him GunbanObama.com to show what he wants to ban. His repsonse after looking through citations was that the right wing (NRA) would just twist what he was saying to make it look worse than it was
He then shot back, TO THE REST OF THE CLASS, that it was a proven statistic that a gun is more likely to be used against you if you have one in the home.... And that there was no need for assault type weapons and they only cause trouble.
I have gave him the Gunfacts.info page to look up and see what he thinks. If you haven't been there it is a great place to see some myths on gun control.
Well this is all I can remember of the discussion - and if I think of more I will post it - so thanks for listening to my rant.
