Well who ever came up with the saying, "sticks and stones will break your bones, but words will never hurt you." Obviously never met these men!

John E. - you are so right! I have been against sticks and stones for years...I mean we all know they have been responsible for many broken bones!! At the very least we need to institute a permit policy for sticks and stones...and a mandatory waiting period as well! Uknow - Are you serious? I think you are the one that needs a grip if you aren't able to realize that John is trying to get some of the idiots in the world to get a clue that it doesn't matter what we take away or allow that there are always going to be people out there that will find ways to hurt others whether they have access to guns or only nature.

Rocks and sticks don't KILL people - PEOPLE KILL PEOPLE. Sooner we realize this and stop blaming it on inanimated objects the better. This just didn't start, the bible tells of much violence toward man, you think it's just got bad in the past 10 years - please get a grip.

Quick! All of you anti-gun nuts should start demanding that all rocks and sticks should be banned forever!
