No..you're right..it doesn't 'have to'--but it very often does.

Of course, every man would like to think he's the exception.

Assuming you lack any sense of morality, I like to think you don't. Then you should be very excited about a ban on ammunition. Why aren't you pushing for it if it would make you a pile of money?
Exactly how would someone know if they were going to kill their wife. Come on man.

SNL should ask Hollywood to produce less violent films than alter our rights ... if you amend or change just one right which other rights that you take for granted could be effected like the 1st Amendment.

Doubt if you're actually serious, but everything in your post should embarrass you.
The Constitution says nothing about quantities of personal property nor is there any chance of a firearm registration.
To advocate for that type of violence is unfortunate.

Slick. This still allows you to project your thoughts onto others. Why care why anyone buys anything with their own money?

Hey..just for a hoot, I'll give you the serious answer:


At heart, I like to know things. This does not make me unique, I think. The reasons why people do things fascinates me. After study, and a long life, I've found that said reasons are not always apparent, but they are always important. Sometimes, vitally so.

Because knowing what motivates people is key to understanding them. It's also key to self-knowledge. In my journey of life I wish to know myself..and to grow.


Sounds goofy, I know...but there you are

I understand the curiosity, just be careful to not project.
