Default Bowling for Ham Radio


"Keith" wrote in message
nk.net...
I had the pleasure of watching the documentary by Michael
Moore called, "Bowling for Columbine". In the opening segment
Michael goes into a Michigan Bank and gets a free shotgun
for opening a CD account. In the documentary he discusses
the fact that the tenage mass killers bought their ammo at Kmart
and obtained guns at gun shows.
The thought occurred to me, Why in the hell can a teenager in America buy

a
weapon of mass destruction with no test or license, but to pick up a
microphone to talk he needs to obtain a license from the federal

government? I
can understand for a vehicle, but isn't it time to do away with Ham Radio
licensing in a nation in which 12,000 people are murdered by untested and
unlicensed gun owners? Just a thought.

Hey Keith...here is a box of oranges, and over there is a box of apples.
See my point?
