Yes, because a financial status = responsibility.  Seriously?  GTFO!  
Hey, lets bring back; only people who own property can vote too, and Jim Crow laws as well.

Based on the idiots we keep electing (and re-electing) to office, I'm thinking we might want to consider instituting some sort of IQ test... :sarcasm:

Hart cited single-parent families, what he described as “a Godless society,” family values, education and a lack of firearm safety as reasons for recent mass shootings.

Why do people still think that religion makes people more moral and less violent?  Haven't all of the killers who cited religion and their beliefs proved that it doesn't stop them anymore than if they were atheist or agnostic.  I have yet to read about an atheist who shoots up a school or abortion clinic and cites the lack of a God as the reason they did it.  It's not as if giving them a Torah, Bible, or Koran would've prevented any of them.

You can't blame single parents either unless you're willing to also blame traditional families for all of the killers that came from those backgrounds.  And the past century has given us a lot of serial killers who came from two parent backgrounds.

Oh MY God, I am in agreement with IE.
Hart's statement can be summed up as: Causation is not correlation.

Started watching Ken Burn's documentary on prohabition again the other night and it reminded me again how trying to completly ban anything in this country dosen't work.  It just leads to more criminal activity and those that resent or don't agree with the law become scofflaws.  Thats why short of some kind of dictatorship arrising in the United States (complete with KGB style secret police) we will never be able to ban guns, abortion, and drugs.
