All new consumer PC's come with windows 8. It is pretty much unavoidable unless you have a legacy windows 7 license.
I still have windows 7, and in the 4 to 8 years it will take my top of the line PC to become hopelessly outdated, I am hoping that something other than windows 8 becomes a viable option.
Or perhaps its time to recognize that working your ass off just to barely survive is no longer necessary in modern society.
We could seriously cut labor hours to 30 or maybe even 20 hours a week with full employment, and still be able to provide the necessities for everyone as well as moderate levels of entertainment and low end luxury goods.
The first one to move against you is likely to be shot and risk death.
Then the remaining 6 have to decide to risk themselves to attempt the assault, flee or return fire. In all cases, the rape can be prevented, though at the risk of the death of the victim, a risk that was already present.
And if you are not locked in a closet with it, you probably won't die to the concentration of gas that you can produce from household cleaner concentrations of bleach and ammonia.
Guns elevate the power of the powerless. A 90lb 5ft tall college girl isn't going to be able to fight off a gangrape with her strength alone, with a gun she can. You may never be able to match the power of an oppressive government, but you can become more equal by being armed.
I wouldn't necessarilly say that "obviously there are not enough" but I do not disagree that a better licensing system may keep some guns out of the hands of some crazy wacked out nutjobs.
Not all restrictions are onerous and unconstitutional, there is room for some gun control, but not bans.
And then there are phones like the galaxy series that match or outclass the iphones in almost every way. there are android phones for everyone. There is only one type of iPhone, your only choice is to get the older one or the newer one.
Or maybe the iphone is inefficient with its data packing. Or maybe it spies on you more than android and sends more data back to apple. Or maybe android appeals to a wider range of users, including those who don't use their phones constantly.

Or he tried to get netflix to work in Windows Media Center on windows 7 64bit.
windows 7 has a text search in the start button, you don't need windows 8 for that.

Fuck off, you give rational pro gun advocates like me a bad image.
You are not contradicting me and you don't even realize it.
I agree with that, irresponsible people shouldn't have guns. And responsible people should.
It is obvious. Is it not?
That nutjob with a knife didn't kill anyone.
In japan a nutjob with a knife and a truck managed to kill 7 in a mass attack.
One gun does help against many guns.

This absolutely is a tragic event. I am not making any false rationalization that it isn't.
But that doesn't mean that I should throw rationality out the window.
Rationality is for lack of a better word, my religion.
True, but he probably won't be raping them if either or both of them also have a gun as well.
And if you are not locked in a closet with it, you probably won't die to the concentration of gas that you can produce from household cleaner concentrations of bleach and ammonia.
And you thing a murderer when faced with a gun ban will just give up?
He can buy an illegal gun, or make a bomb, or use a crossbow, or poison, or just get up close and use a pointy stick or hefty rock.
The murder rate is not related to the relative legality of firearms.
unfortunately, yes. :(

Bleach and Ammonia do not create a big boom, they produce a very irritating poisonous gas that is dangerous but not usually fatal.
I would not object to mandatory training classes for gun ownership if those classes were readily available and affordable.
9 out of 10 gun shot victims survive.

I have an IBM Model M keyboard with a 5lb steel plate on the bottom. Most assuredly I can kill someone with a computer.
Ban knives too, 22 kids were also the victim of a mass stabbing at a school in china.
Guns are not the problem. Fucking nutjobs are the problem.
violence is only moral when used to prevent violence.
The police used violence without that threat and are in the wrong.
