In light of what happened at Virginia Tech last week, what do you think of the gun laws in the United States? Should it be harder for some people to buy a gun than it is now? For instance, it was technically illegal for the VT killer to buy firearms because he had been diagnosed as emotionally troubled by a psychologist, and yet he still managed to easily purchase two guns and ammunition. What good are laws if they are easy to break without being caught? Do you believe laws should be changed to make it much tougher for potential killers to buy weapons? If so, how could the laws be better regulated and enforced?

Sports Today Vs. Sports Back Then
Are some sports today as exciting as they were back in the 90s? If not, which ones do you think are less exciting? Why have these posrts become boring? Have our lives became so busy we don't have time for sports anymore? Why? Are sports just not fun to watch anymore? Is it because of the money? Fame? Advertising? Too much focus on the individual over the team?
Thanks for your thoughts.

Does probation really serve its purpose?
In todays justice system probation is the most commonly used type of punishment. Many people argue that probation is just a mild slap on the wrist. Others think that this is very good for the offenders as well as the government in that the government isnt losing money sending people to jail for small crime. How do you think probation stands?
