Why I don't own a gun
Speaking of hardwired responses to fireworks....
Some big booms are happening in the neighborhood right now. My hardwired response is not to crawl under the bed. My hardwired response is to KILL THE FUCKING ASSHOLE.
If I owned a gun I would go out and find the asshole and KILL THE ASSHOLE. Civilization would gain hugely from the deletion of a noisy asshole, but I would end up in prison for an unnecessary act of justice.
Nature takes care of assholes pretty well.
So I don't own a gun.
Incidentally, the Darwin Awards website has come back to life after several years of dormancy. Good reading.
