“An Armed Society Is a Polite Society” 0

Another random act of politeness.

A DeLand woman was hit in the shoulder by a shot fired from outside her home Thursday night, according to police.

The lowest common denominator in all this is not, as one may wish to think, “mental illness,” or even, as seems more likely, the stupid.

It’s the guns.

Without the guns, the stupid and the “mentally ill” would be–how shall I put this?–much less dangerous.

Don’t get me wrong.

I’m not about banning guns.

But I’m certainly about controlling them.

Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.

I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).

I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.
