I know that bullets are available just about anywhere you can buy fishing licenses. Including wal-marts and every true-value I've seen. Each and everytime they are in locked cabinets, a special associate has to sell it and I ~almost~ always have to show a state issued ID. I don't actually know about Kmart. I fail to see how ~restricting~ where they can be bought from makes any sense. I fail to understand, frankly, how parents of teenage boys do not know there sons have guns in their house. It boggles my mind. To be so mindlessly unobservant or even uninvolved in these young men's lives.

I also have not seen 'Bowling for Columbine' despite repeated suggestions to do so, and am therefore not qualified to speak on it's merits. I have been briefed that it is mostly fiction.

This is what it all boils down too, I think. What is it about how our children are raised now that is different? What is better? What is worse?
