I heard on National Public Radio about the USA planning to use land mines in their military campaign in Iraq, contrary to the wishes of most of the rest of the world who wanted to ban land mines. The USA also planned to use cluster bombs. If there were land mines hidden under the White House lawn, then I bet the US President would join the clamor to ban land mines. Lesson is that only American lives and limbs count, other people are somehow a lesser breed, less than fully human. I can see why 75% of Europeans view the USA as a greater threat to world peace than Iraq or North Korea.
I remember from my days in Atlanta GA, 1985-1989, hearing about the mandatory gun law in Kennesaw, which is in Cobb County to the northwest of Atlanta.
