Thought this was going to be a Pratchett thread! (I suppose though it would have been in the book club section if it was.) Haven't read that one yet, any good?

- yet another mass shooting incident in the USA.
Who thinks there'll be any gun control debate in the US in reaction?

Oh if we are talking about books.... has anyone read body double? I bought it cuz i want to read it but might find it too scary so i have made mum read it first, only she is reading a book at the minute and i want to read it now!
How to totally derail a thread in two posts!
Sorry DJ...

Citizens need handguns to defend themselves against nutjobs who want to kill them. If anything, this is a strong argument to allow all employed persons to take their gun to work daily to deter this sort of casual, random killing. Bearing in mind how often this happens in schools (Columbine, etc) perhaps we should arm all our schoolchildren as well.Originally Posted by DavidJames

Well, it all started as an innocent poll on the merits of fungi as food... until D expressed her full and frank opinion.
Classic.
Oh, this thread...
People who want to use guns for criminal purposes will not care whether guns are illegal or not - how much difference have firearms laws made to gun crime in the UK? - last I heard, shootings were up.
I was going to ask how I missed that one. But I guess that it ended upstairs. And I don't read that section very often! (Being very shy and innocent myself )Originally Posted by LMC
Good, you're much more fun when you're Evil.Originally Posted by DavidJames
Guess I am too, for helpfully supplying said Harperlink - yes Trampy, it's upstairs, but you wouldn't understand it, being the innocent and dewy-eyed little flower that you are.
Huh. I can assure you that is not dew...Originally Posted by LMC
Heh. Good job you're on my ignore list, and I can't read that!!Originally Posted by Barry Shnikov
i say it like it is!Originally Posted by DavidJames
Quite likely, but this is possibly nearer (a very destructive form) of suicide than normal criminal endeavour.Originally Posted by LMC
For suicide I think research has shown that there is high degree of correlation between ready means and suicides.
I hope he's meaning the second bit of your postOriginally Posted by frodo
I've no idea, maybe he's confusing mushrooms with toadstools?
