This has been making the rounds on the internet, apparently, but I just saw it. It's too good not to re-post. Sorry I don't know who is the original author, but kudos to . . . whomever,
"How about we treat every young man who wants to buy a gun like every
woman who wants to get an abortion — mandatory 48-hr waiting period,
parental permission, a note from his doctor proving he understands what
he's about to do, a video he has to watch about the effects of gun
violence, an ultrasound wand up the ass (just because). Let's close down
all but one gun shop in every state and make him travel hundreds of
miles, take time off work, and stay overnight in a strange town to get a
gun. Make him walk through a gauntlet of people holding photos of loved
ones who were shot to death, people who call him a murderer and beg him
not to buy a gun.
"It makes more sense to do this with young men and guns than with women
and health care, right? I mean, no woman getting an abortion has killed a
room full of people in seconds, right?"
