   Hello Some Guy   
      
   Welcome to the conversation   
      
   Guns, Guns, Guns..   
   What right or wrong with guns   
   I wonder why Larry wants his gun.   
   I know my father had several guns during his life.   
   They were never used to shot people.   
      
   To show interest in an item you seem to disapprove of does not mean that   
   item will be used in the manner you suggested.   
      
   Do you own a knife? You know a carving knife or cleaver. Should everyone   
   around you fear you? A knife can be as dangers as a gun.   
      
   And watch out for paper. I am told paper cuts are the worst cuts.   
      
   Yes I believe Canada should be a gun fire country right down to the police.   
   If you strongly believe Larry should not have a gun then work to changes the   
   laws.

   Chief among our gains must be reckoned this possibility of choice, the   
   recognition of many possible ways of life, where other civilizations have   
   recognized only one. Where other civilizations give a satisfactory outlet to   
   only one temperamental type, be he mystic or soldier, business man or   
   artist, a civilization in which there are many standards offers a   
   possibility of satisfactory adjustment to individuals of many different   
   temperamental types, of diverse gifts and varying interests.
