I remember the scene in Archie Bunker where he responds "would it make you
feel any better if they was pushed out of windows?".

And of course now little kids are being pushed out of windows for just saying
"No" to crime.

Come on folks... the guns don't have anything to do with it.  Guns are just
as much a victim of criminal attitudes as the people the point those guns at
and shoot.  Criminals will be criminals even without guns, and they will be
the last to have them taken away anyway.
