When I came to this thread, instead of coming to the first unread post like usual, the link took me to the last post. I went back to see where the new posts started. Then I decided, it was better the first time.

In A.D. 2101
War was beginning.
Captain: What happen ?
Mechanic: Somebody set up us the bomb.
Operator: We get signal.
Captain: What !
Operator: Main screen turn on.
Captain: It's You !!
Cats: How are you gentlemen !!
Cats: All your base are belong to us.
Cats: You are on the way to destruction.
Captain: What you say !!
Cats: You have no chance to survive make your time.
Cats: HA HA HA HA ....
Captain: Take off every 'zig' !!
Captain: You know what you doing.
Captain: Move 'zig'.
Captain: For great justice.
My favorite line is this: "The Chinese government is banking on the launch [...] demonstrating China's technological prowess," even though the craft and gear are made from old Soviet parts .

If you've read Titan by Stephen Baxter (very good book), then it could mean the destruction of humanity . In the book, the chinese nuke an asteroid to align it to head straight into the US, but the asteroid is too big and wipes out all humans on the earth. Wonderful, isn't it. And the book opens with the scene of Columbia being destroyed as it is coming in from orbit .

And policemen. And soldiers. And those that have a license.
really those that have a license??? and who sets that??? If you had your way, would you not do away with all guns? Isn't this a bit of a fantasy world? Are you really telling me, that I couldn't manufacture a gun all by my lonesome self? So what have you accomplished, nothing but allow those that would do evil to have the advantage, but then, you'd say don't resist right? just give the money too them, what if they aren't there for the money???

Yes really, and the state, based upon a clean criminal record and, fine mental health.

No, I would not do away all guns. Yes, that would be a fantasy world, and exactly why I'm not in favor of it as you try to simplify (small minds need to simplify to understand things). And yes, you could manufacture guns by yourself, as you can manufacture bombs by yourself, but you would risk killing or maiming yourself. We've had criminals in Belgium who blew themselves up when manufacturing an explosives to rob a money transport (lost both hands and eyesight + burnwounds).
