(2,436 posts)11. Treat them like we treat child pornography. With intolerance.
If those kids at Sandy Hook school had had naked pictures taken of them, there would be no question what society would do about such contraband.
Instead, their corpses are piled up like cordwood and the nation wrings its metaphorical hands trying to decide how to politely debate the subject of so-called "gun rights."
