    Default Well, this video has made me re-think gun control

    First, let me explain a bit of my thought process -
    It's easy to take a position on a subject based purely on theory and philosophy, but not so easy when one experiences, personally, something that challenges that.

    That's what happened with this video:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vHD1uxujnFQ

    Just watch the whole thing. The point it makes is compelling, and one that I can not easily dismiss.

    If I ever get a gun, it will be solely for that reason.

    If you're going to create a zombie apocalypse thread, CR, just say so! It's been too long since we've had a good zombie thread. (Anybody excited for 28 Weeks Later? Or do we think it will suck?)

    Well 28 days later wasn't exactly great. Mediocre is what I'd call it. So the sequel, which is more of the same, can't be any better.

    I said it changed my views. We need more guns, guns given away free to the peoples for the inevitable zombie attack!

    I don't support giving guns away free - that's socialism!

    Though I wonder if Rudy Guliani does.

    Will work as long as "Bub" or "Big Daddy" won't show up.
    We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?

    Are they the fast moving type or the slow hobbling type?

    Crazed Rabbit, it's too late to give out the guns. Zombies have infiltrated the U.S. military.
