Let me make a short, opening, blanket comment. There are no good guns. There no bad guns. Any gun in the hands of a bad man is a bad thing. Any gun in the hands of a decent person is no threat to anybody – except bad people.
– Charleton Heston on NBC’s Meet the Press, May 18, 1997
I don’t think it’s about more gun control. I grew up in the South with guns everywhere and we never shot anyone. This [shooting] is about people who aren’t taught the value of life.
