“I don't know where the characters are going to go or what's going to happen. I know that something inevitable will happen. I know that they want certain things and they're in a certain room and they smell like this and they look like that. More often than not, an entropy creeps in that strangles me, and then the inevitable happens. I don't know if I have the ability to write an ending like My Fair Lady's, when everyone gets what they want after a few minor conflicts. If I tried to write that it would just be false. Or I'd have someone enter with a machine gun.” IfsKnowsWantWritingLooksCharacterHappensCertainAbilityRoomsConflictGunFairsMachinesSmellInevitableMinorsCreepsEntropyMachine GunsMy Fair Lady Author:Adam Rapp
“I disagreed with the way the court applied the Second Amendment in Heller's case, because what the District of Columbia was trying to do was to protect toddlers from guns and so they wanted people with guns to safely store them. And the court didn't accept that reasonable regulation, but they've accepted many others. So I see no conflict between saving people's lives and defending the Second Amendment.” PeopleWayTryingWantedAcceptingCasesProtectConflictGunCourtStoresAcceptedSavingReasonableAmendmentsRegulationSecond AmendmentColumbiaToddler Author:Hillary Clinton
“If we were living back in 1789, your musket would be really useful in a military conflict. If you were called up to service, they said bring your musket. And indeed, the First Congress passed a law. You want to know the first gun control law in America? First Congress passed a law mandating that all able-bodied men must own a musket.” IfsKnowsMenWantFirstsSaidWould BeAbleAmericaLawMilitaryConflictGunCongressGun ControlThey Said Author:Ted Cruz
“Every cop will tell you that their real job is being a social worker. That's what they do all day. The large majority of police officers in this country never even draw their gun, let alone fire it. They do conflict resolution, right? And if that's their job, why do they need to look like they're an occupying force?” RealCountryConflictGunPoliceResolutionCopPolice OfficerSocial WorkerConflict Resolution Author:Malcolm Gladwell

“Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. This is not a way of life at all in any true sense. Under the clouds of war, it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron.” WorldWayChildrenMadeWarPoliticalHumanityPoliticsPeacePresidentPovertyMilitaryThis WorldArmsColdGeniusConflictGunCrossesScientistFinalsHungerCloudsSpendingWar Of The WorldsIronFedsSweatAntiwarCold WarTheftRocketsVietnam WarGreat WarLaborersHanging OnMake Peace Not WarFree GovernmentArmamentEnding PovertyGovernment SpendingSpending MoneyWorld HungerUs PresidentPeace Not WarJust WarWorld PovertyCost Of WarMilitary SoldierWar On PovertyHunger And PovertyHunger PovertyGlobal PovertyGreatest MilitaryMilitary BudgetPolitics And WarMilitary SpendingCold WorldMilitary LifeWarshipsDefense SpendingPowerful GovernmentMilitary Weapons Author:Dwight D.

“The measures adopted to restore public order are: First of all, the elimination of the so-called subversive elements. ... They were elements of disorder and subversion. On the morrow of each conflict I gave the categorical order to confiscate the largest possible number of weapons of every sort and kind. This confiscation, which continues with the utmost energy, has given satisfactory results.” FirstsKindGovernmentOrderEnergyGivenResultsNumbersConflictElementsWeaponsGunDisorderGun ControlAdoptedSubversiveMorrowEliminationSubversionDisarmingAnti Gun Author:Benito Mussolini
