You don't think that guns have some kind of "mystical" property about them
do you?    I mean, how is it that these pieces of refined metal are
"getting inside a person's head" and even "changing the way a person
thinks?"   

If this experiment was conducted with African children, or Borneoan
children, or European children, would we get the same result?    If not, is
it the gun that is at fault, or is it the culture that the child was raised
in?
