That would be interesting if HIV could be used as a cure for cancer indeed Rainbow. Funny how science and nature works. On one hand something can be deadly, on the other it may bring life. As for gun violence, too many people really do believe might makes right. I do think NRA should stand for Nervous Reaction Association. I have issues with everyone and anyone making money from fear and violence. What interest is it of theirs to create a truly peaceful society?

Yes Zen, the question may sound trivial, but you're pointing something crucial. Their is more economical interests so far, in using fear than to establish a truly peaceful society. But social violence in itself is anti - economic and blind.

Thanks LR. Very interesting about the HIV/cancer treatment topic. Thanks also for the "Time" covers. A reminder that the issues about gun violence have gone on way too long. It's time for a change!
