one unfortunate similarity between the "left" and the "right" in America is their neverending support for the arms industry. perhaps if we didn't make so many weapons and sell them to developing countries (that are constantly plagued by corrupt governments, civil uprisings, etc - instability that becomes even worse when large weapons caches are present) - we wouldn't have so many problems to begin with?
"Worldwide, the United States ranked first in arms transfer agreements, making nearly $12.1 billion worth of agreements in 2001 for 45.8 percent of all agreements globally." ... "Arms deliveries to the developing world totaled $14.4 billion in 2001. The developing world received 67.6% of the world’s arms deliveries."

well i m for guns becuase its fun flyign a peice of metal at a can or womthing. much like fireworks are fun. and certain lines of defense (real defense). personally i would like to see many many countries disarmed of all chemical/biological and wmds, including the states and canada. there is no need fo rthese other than mass destruction. if that is the only why a country can see fot to deal with somthing all the more reason to disarm. theres this lefties opinion on weapons.
