Dear Editor,
In response to "Gunning for Tomb Raider" (Post, Oct 13), I perceive that
the writer wants to deny Cambodians the chance to make money because the film "Tomb
Rader" may have some fake guns in it. How kind of him! It reminds me of the
kindness of the NGOs who [want to] shut down the Nike factory, forcing 3000 workers
to lose their jobs because of one 16-year-old worker.
Freud said that a fear of firearms indicates a fear of sexual inadequacy. Since the
anonymous writer is presumably British, I am not surprised. The problems of my native
Cambodia are caused by a lack of firearms (and the willingness to use them) by your
average law-abiding citizen to fight crime and government oppression.
