I was taking a Flash class in a university
building called the Police Training Institute
during a break I ate lunch in the lobby where
an undergraduate was videotaping interviews
with various men studying to be police
She was asking them about their guns
How old are you
Twenty
Have you shot anybody
No
Would you use your gun to shoot another human being
Yes a gun is a tool
Do you believe in stricter gun control laws
No I believe guns don't kill people people kill people the 2nd amendment
etcetera
Did you always want to be a policeman
No. I wanted to be a teacher. At my high school
in Chicago kids used to bring guns to school.
One day I just freaked out and decided
being a teacher was too dangerous.
And so he decided to become a policeman
Guns don't kill people people kill people
but guns kill the desire to
teach

If you could kick a child and make gas prices go down a dollar a gallon?
What if nobody would see you kick the child?
What if you knew you would get away with it?
?
Two dollars?
It's a bad kid anyway. A rotten kid
