7. Exactly.
If I had ever owned a gun, I wouldn't have made it to thirty, and neither would a lot of other people. And I am about as even-tempered a guy as you could meet.

The arguement that you can kill people by strangling, etc. is a stupid one. It takes one second to pull a trigger, and you never have to touch the person. All other methods require a lot more effort and personal interaction. The odds of coming to your senses before you have inflicted death are a lot better.

Human beings need to evolve a lot more before they have the power of instant death at their fingertips.
