Some will always think the solution is more guns. The kid who shot the children in Connecticut..didn't have to go far to get the ones he had..they were his mothers...she took him target shooting. I don't think having guns is bad..I was raised with them...I'm a great shot..but they will never be a road to peace or an answer to making friends with visitors who might drop by

Guns are like nuclear energy, cars and drugs. They are always going to be here no matter how badly people want to get rid of them. The technology to make these things exists. That knowledge can't just be erased. They can all be both good and/or bad depending on whos hands they are in and what they decide to do with them. BTW, more children are killed each year by drugs and cars than guns. It wouldn't do much good to outlaw drugs since they already have been. Should we outlaw cars instead? How about if we just make it against the law to murder people? That would solve the problem right there.

TheRealNimoy I am angry/disgusted. Amazing that some think the solution is more guns. Madness. Even NRA members want more control. LLAP TheRealNimoy I respect the diffence between "Automatic" and "Semi-Automatic" but the horrible FACT is these kids were sprayed with bullets. LLAP TheRealNimoy I understand the right to own a gun. Does it have to be an automatic weapon of mass destruction ? LLAP

What would you do with him if you had him? Item DescriptionLeonard Nimoy is a man of many talents. Best known as Star Trek’s Spock, Nimoy is also a noted photographer, philanthropist, and playwright. You and a guest will have two reserved house seats to his play Vincent (his lauded work about the artist Van Gogh), playing at his namesake home, the Leonard Nimoy Thalia at Symphony Space. After the show, join Mr. Nimoy for a drink. Put in your bid now, to do anything else would be highly illogical! broadwayworld.com/article/OHara-Nimoy-Up-For-Bid-In-Symphony-Space-Auction-20130325www.biddingforgood.com/auction/AuctionHome.action?auctionId=190946123__________________________________________________________if it was just him & me i would interview him over drinks, i'd also ask him if he would come here to THE EDGE OF REALITY for a question & answers session... then i would write about the experience of meeting him, watching the play & having a drink with him... i would then type it all up & sell to to a magazine... also i'd have my picture taken with him... i'd be the one with the big smile on my face... LOL

That sounds like a good idea, auntym. Just remember though that you can't take him home and keep him.

TheRealNimoy Always enjoy my friend @zacharyquinto. But trying to beat me out of a free lunch is not logical.
