Americans said marijuana was unsafe so it must be outlawed. Americans then found out that it wasn't so dangerous and it was legalized again.
Now Americans scream guns are dangerous so they must be illegal.
If people were wrong before then how can they be so sure that they are right now?
Alcohol is dangerous, though MJ, not so much, but the choice to use it rests with the user and most likely victim. Guns, on the other hand, only have one function: to make holes in things. If people are the chosen target, death is common. Why is this so hard?
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
