   @johnnynull If you don't have a TV at home you'll find that your teachings will prevail.

     @johnnynull Definitely! For example, our kids know when Christmas is coming, but we don't make any hype about it, they don't get ads telling them they need presents, and when the day comes they're more than happy with some small gifts. Along these same lines, there are some interesting stats about eating habits in the documentary Super Size Me. If you've got a TV, throw it away. The kids will end up watching stuff you download for them anyway, and I bet you won't be normalising guns and violence in the mind of a toddler. :)

     @johnnynull I don't buy the argument that guns are not bad, that they are just tools, innocent inanimate objects. I don't agree.
     You can't make a yummy lunch with a gun, you can't open your laptop and upgrade RAM with a gun, you can't sweep the floor with a gun, you can't ride your gun to work in the morning. What can you do with a gun? You can intimidate, threaten and scare/terrify, you can kill with a gun. Don't be fooled by America gun culture. Guns are not good.

     @johnnynull You could stab someone in the chest with a screwdriver. That would definitely be an act of violence. But screwdrivers weren't invented for that. They are used for things like upgrading the RAM on your laptop. Guns' however, purpose is to kill. They are designed for that.
     What data you're referring to?

     @johnnynull You call me a 'fucking fool' with 'stupid reasoning' because I believe guns are bad and you don't. Do you react like this to everybody who questions gun culture?

     @johnnynull Well, I hope you can learn for this then.
