New York Times Thoughts

Wednesday-- The gun control debate is fascinating to me because the issue of gun control should be left to the state. Guns don't kill people; people kill people. I assume the founding father's never come have imagined the debate they would cause with the Second Amendment yet even to this day, the fundamental principles the amendment was implied for are true to this day. The founding fathers cared about their children (e.g. the American citizen). I do not care who gets a gun as long as they are not a criminal, mentally ill, or just plain do not need it... but then again, who really needs it? I do not fully understand the impact of the new drug trial tests being administered for melanoma. The New York Times has been covering this new research for the past six days. UMMM, France, what the fuck are you doing!? The French government's new campaign is disturbing to me. I do not understand it. A country sells a produce, even subsidize it, but we decide to spend millions upon millions to get people not to smoke. Having an anti-smoking campaign that equates smoking to being a sex slave seems a little much. Politics did not seem that interesting today. There is far too much speculation about what will be passed and who will be pressure who to sign something into legislation. The last bit of applying news is the shooting in a suburban Denver middle school on Tuesday where a gunman wielding a high-powered rifle wounded two students as Deer Creek Middle School. I'm getting the feeling that Colorado will drive you insane. Maybe Colorado should think about outlawing firearms.
