Enough.

Neither gun manufacturers? profits and quasi-interpreted Second
Amendment rights, nor the convenience of packing heat are valid
reasons to endanger innocent lives any longer.

Six police officers were shot and killed within two months in Puget
Sound. A young man was shot over an iPod and two teenagers were shot
in Burien at an apartment complex.

Enough. We need gun control, and we need it now.

Go ahead and explain what gun control would have saved the lives of
those officers, Phillip. Take all the room you need.

Who's this "Phillip" person you keep talking about? Why don't you send
your requests to him instead of me, I don't know him.

Ignoring the question will not make it go away..

Two things you need to understand here. 1) My name is not Phillip,
never has been; and 2) nobody claimed that gun control directly would
have saved those officers' lives, that sort of blanket statement is
usually made by pro-gunners falsely stating that if a law abiding
citizen had have had a gun then such and incident "would" have been
prevented (examples available on request).

Are you so thin skinned you are bothered by what people call you on
USENET ?
I have been called all sorts of stupid names, names much more insuliting
than "phillip"

And did you not orginially post the link to the opinion piece ?
Are you in the habit of posting things you don't agree with ? Is that
what you want people to believe ?
