Guns

Guns are a bit of a big issue for me. I've had mixed experience with guns. Both legal and illegal experiences. Self-defense situations as well as sports-shooting experiences. Unfortunately I've long since acknowledged that there are gun laws on the books today that I feel are not strict enough considering that I know people who I myself do not consider as fit to own a firearm that own several. 

In my experience these individuals do own firearms and are not afraid to use them against individuals whom they've disrespected openly in public and treat with the utmost disrespect imaginable. 

They have bad things coming to them and don't respect human life or dignity and are not afraid to violate it if they see fit to do so. 

Gun laws have not closed the capability of individuals such as these from acquiring firearms and I doubt it ever will. The black market for guns is unimaginably large and the legal market is largely unregulated.

In America, today, you can go out and by a gun as a gift for someone else other than yourself without naming that person on any legal document before, during, or after leaving the point of sale and the gun can pretty much go anywhere from that point be it legally, illegally or otherwise. 

It can be sold to a schizophrenic on the street who sells heroine to scrape by and support his own addiction or a family friend who still has two years until he can buy his own guns but has been depressed lately.

Guns, in my opinion, need stricter regulations.

Weeds

This week I decided to discuss Marijuana

Now, I myself know that in pretty much every lower and middle class neighborhood in the United states lies a pot dealer. States with weed legalized do not count but medical marijuana states and pretty much every region in every developed country has a weed dealer.

From personal experience I can tell you that one cannot see coming nor imagine that sheer fold of events that can transpire due to unregulated and/or illegal markets left unchecked but I, fortunately, am still alive to tell you how explosive things are.

Would you be surprised if, right now, you could walk outside and see weed dealers offloading buckets of marijuana into homes right across the street from your own?

Would you be surprised if, right now, you could walk outside and see weed dealers in a standoff with each other at gun point waiting for someone to make a sudden move?

Would you be surprised if people younger than you, who you'd known your entire life or for many years who lived common middle class existences who were good kids, good people, and always happy, were actually weed dealers and oftentimes full blown hard-drug dealers?

Well, you'd be a dumb ass if you were surprised.

Shit is out there en-masse and the longer the industry and consumption of said marijuana remains illegal the longer it will remain connected to cartels, harder drugs, guns, and the mad men that carry them.

Federally Legalize weed and have people who WON'T murder you over a couple hundred bucks in charge of the drug.
