Regarding the 'guns kill people' argument, yes, I know exactly what you meant, and it's the most commonly used argument for gun control. It's also the easiest argument to break down. Yes, a gun is designed to kill, but it is the person who decides what it kills. Or if it kills at all. Currently, the guns in my house have yet to kill anything, and chances are with how safe this neighborhood is and how lazy my dad is, they likely will never be fired beyond a shooting range.

Wow... that is exactly what I did not mean. In my last post I was about to say even a retarded person would understand what I meant. Lucky for you, I didn't, cause that would have just been embarrassing for you. What I meant is that you're hanging into a sentence I said, which I could have detailed better but didn't bother to, and using it as an argument.

I don't know how to respond to that. Either you're surprised that I'm stating that, or you're expressing something in a way that I can't understand over the internet.

So you don't think people should not have a tank in their front yard, unless it's there just as an "ornament"? xD

I don't support the death of innocent people, I support the right to bear and own armaments. A man who goes through the legal channels to own a gun, who takes the time to learn how to keep it safely without it harming anyone innocent.
The people who want to harm the innocent are the people who should not be allowed to own a weapon of any kind.


Why the hell do you need a gun?! It's already established it's not for protection from wildlife, because other places have the exact same predator animals, yet still have much better gun laws. It also can't be for protection from other people with guns, because if nobody had guns, why would you need one for protection against them. But that one goes without saying. Guns aren't paintings that people should have a right to buy if they feel like it, and even if they think they can be careful with them. They're dangerous machines designed to kill and destroy.

A person can just as easily create a bomb or start a fire.
If a person really wants to hurt people, they will try their hardest to achieve that goal, regardless of the weapon.


Yes, but do you suggest we take people's fists away too? They can be used to kill as well, y'know
