"guns dont kill people, people kill people"
of course guns dont, but what are guns designed *for*? killing people. thats their only purpose to kill, and what they were designed for. they serve no other purpose but to harm people.
"if we outlaw guns, we might as well outlaw knives and matches"
no retard, because some knives arent designed for killing people, people use them to kill, but theyre not meant to kill- unlike guns and same with matches, they have other purposes and sometimes are used to kill but not as much as guns.
"if we outlaw guns only outlaws will have guns"
outlaws dont magically conjure guns out of their qooq, they have to buy them; a 2005 research found out that on average there are approximately 30k gun related deaths in the US, and only 49 in the UK. |

Half of all gun related deaths are from self inflected death, aka soocide. And guns are tools. Tool for killing people. Oh well. Get over it. How else would you defend yourself?
And machetes were originally designed for killing, and they excel at that mind you. They're the murder weapon of choice in South Africa.
They also did pretty well in Rwanda and Sierra Leone. |

Half of all gun related deaths are from self inflected death, aka soocide. - there are other ways people can do that, they dont need guns, my step sisters dad did it with a rope and stair case.
And guns are tools. Tool for killing people. - the only person who needs a tool for killing is someone who plans on killing. "i keep a loaded ak-47 with 50 banana clips for um, home defense, er, yeah, home defense!"
Oh well. Get over it. How else would you defend yourself? - the us is one of the only countries where carrying around a gun for 'self defense' is common sense, get over it.
And machetes were originally designed for killing, and they excel at that mind you. They're the murder weapon of choice in South Africa. - im pretty sure they were actually designed for cutting grass in jungle and sugar cane, but thats why i said 'some' next time try to clear your mind of bias before reading :)
They also did pretty well in Rwanda and Sierra Leone. - youre speaking explicitly about machetes, that doesnt really help your case. |

A bow was invented so that early humans could hunt animals at a range so they wouldn't scare away what they were hunting as long as they managed to stay out of it's sight and hit the shot. Bows later were designed for warfare but were first used as tools. This is the same case with guns. |

| No, guns were pretty much always used for killing people. That's what the first ones were made for. |

That's a poor argument. Pencils soul purpose isn't to take life.

A Gun is a ranged weapon, I think it's fair to put it and cannons and bows in the same class.
And in that case, a bow was originally for hunting, making the entire class of ranged weapons begin for the soul purpose of hunting.
So ultimately a gun was not made for killing.

Oh and btw, kitchen knives have never succeeded in a single-strike kill. They're not made for killing, they are inefficient as killing weapons.
Actual knives for killing, well they are efficient killing weapons, and probably succeed at a one-strike kill a lot of the time.

The Theater shooter/any gun massacre could have never killed so many people with a knife.

great point arctic,
and it takes a lot more heart and commitment to walk up and stab someone then to close your eyes and blast. |
