Description
Death everywhere. The small crowd of civilians didn't stand a chance against a single machine gun brought forth to break the Malden riot. In a matter of seconds the only sound was that of the superheated barrel radiating off the excess degrees it had gained from its burst. Operation Flashpoint strikes again! (title was Flak's idea)

This is sobering. I am of two minds on gun control. On the one hand, it seems as though machine guns like you depict have utterly no purpose except to kill people, and so should be kept out of the hands of anyone who can't document a legitimately great need to kill. On the other hand, coincidentally, I was discussing just last night an incident that happened almost outside my mother-in-law's back door 20 years ago: in Yale, Michigan, USA (population: 1900), a drug-crazed, white, middle-class, 16-year-old male took an ordinary .22 hunting rifle over to his "friend's" house and killed him, his mother, and all three of his brothers and sisters, leaving no one in the family except a devastated father who was at work. I would never advocate gun control be applied to such a weapon, yet that was the one that shocked and forever scarred a tiny, peaceful town. Perhaps the NRA's trite saying has some merit after all, that it really is people, more than guns, that kill people.

In the words of a person calling into chatterbox (a GTA3 radio station) "Guns don't kill people... you can die of organ failure... but a small piece of metal isn't the problem"

After WWII, the Japanese Military was debriefed and they were asked, "Why didn't you invade the West Coast of the USA after Pearl Harbor". Their response was, "Because your population is too well armed and proficient in their firearms". There is a reason for the 2nd Amendment. Want a great example? Look at Switzerland. All able men are required to have not only rifles, but certain ones are trained to use Assault weapons.

You created quite the political discussion with your rendering, didn't you?

The problem with guns isn't the gun but the guy behind the gun. I'm pretty certain if guns were suddenly to disappear one day that Los Angeles would record a drive by spear chucking within 24 hours. I think Thomas Jefferson said it best "Laws that forbid the carrying of arms... disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man." We need less gun control and more criminal control!
