Dilemma 4/8/09


My Life had stood -- a Loaded Gun --
In Corners -- till a Day
The Owner passed -- identified --
And carried Me away --

--Emily Dickinson


You have the magical power to stop one and only one of the following two scenarios. Which would you prevent?

1. A friend with a history of anger issues buys a gun.
2. A friend with a history of depression buys a gun.

Sorry, friend-with-depression. I must prevent #1. I think friend-with-anger-issues would be more likely to use the gun to kill others before (or instead of) him/herself.
