Gun, Gun, Whose Got the Gun?

The recent shooting at Virginia Tech has moved the spotlight to that never ending political game of gun control. Some are saying that the shooting would never have happened if the student could not buy a gun. Maybe, I say. But that misses the point, as all these arguments do. No one, or at least very few people, wants to discuss the real issue at the heart of the gun control debate, which is the ability of Americans to use guns to overthrow a potentially repressive government. It is not that hard an issue to understand. It is the foundation of the gun lobby strategy. Why do you think that we don't hear that discussed on all those talking head shows? Now that would be very interesting.
