Good read. Backed with reason and logic. Is Huffpost turning?

Probably a bait/switch tactic. Get more readers then attempt to corrupt their minds with BS. Still a news source I don't trust and perhaps never will.

I loved this quote by Stefan Molyneaux used in the comments section...

"If you are for gun control, then you're not against guns, because the guns will be needed to disarm people. You'll need to go around, pass laws, and shoot people who resist, kick in doors, and throw people in jail, and so on; rip up families, just to take away guns. So it's not that you're anti-gun, because [...] you'll need the police's guns to take away other people's guns, so you're very pro-gun, you just believe that only the government (which is of course so reliable, honest, moral, virtuous, and forward-thinking) should be allowed to have guns. So there's no such thing as gun control, there's only centralizing gun ownership in the hands of a small political elite and their minions. Gun control is a misnomer."

I like it too.

It was a good read. Nice to see something like that for a change. I don't think they're changing obviously, but even a broken clock is right twice a day.
