You have got to be kidding me!!! Laws are not made to oppress, but because we, I say WE have seen in the past where someone or something infringed on someone else's rights and caused harm to innocents... Laws are placed for that not to happen... In the free society you speak of I would be allowed to come over there and kick the hell out of you and expect no consequences, or purchase the high explosives that I want and create a crater of glass around you!! I'm not even saying you are wrong but the utopian society you speak of will never exist we need laws to keep control of the idiots down the road and prevent future crimes... I do however have a problem with you thinking that it is a miniscule threat, PEOPLE dieing is not very miniscule... the false positives are worth it... if it saves 15 or 20 American's lives it will be worth it.. You call this a "witch hunt" it's not a witch hunt it is a serious problem.

Touchy subjects I know but worth a thought... Would you like to know that every postman could get their hands on high explosives? Could you imagine what would have happened if the kids in Columbine could have gotten their hands on high explosives?
