    Considering the strictness of NY gun control laws, I'd say they do pretty well for themselves.

    But I get your point and agree. However, I think SFTS agrees too. I also think he makes an excellent point, that the "modern" (last hundreds of years) inventions has scrambled the old relationship between men and women, and that the law has not caught up.
    Yes, but you're a full blooded Scandanavian, I'm not as tall.

    You mean, despite the strict gun controls they still manage to kill lots of people? The point is, there is little to no evidence that the death penalty is an effective deterrent.

    Swedish and half Austrian actually...

    The throw of the dice gave me the Swedish looks and the Austrian way of skiing. I am utterly blessed, the other way around would have been horrible!!

    But back to the point, I do think SFTS's argument holds value. Moderns laws has NOT caught up with the changes we have seen in society at large.
