My first reaction to this depressing chain of letters is to think: my God, how sick has our country become that we even need to have these discussions? I take Carol Gazells thoughts very seriously because of her long years of experience teaching in (I believe) Newark, NJ. Not the kindest, gentlest place in the nation. But I also cringe at the thought of all the guns here. After spending more than 40 years in Europe I cant get behind the gun fetish mentatlity, as I have noted in other posts. It is a phenomenon which is peculiar to the US and one which the rest of the civilized world doesnt understand, even when its roots in the 2nd ammendment, or the interpretation thereof, is explained to them. This obsession , in my mind, does not elevate us, or make us more free, or safer, or better. It makes us considerably less civilized!
