Sounds like a BS way to change the argument. I don't think the parent poster was suggesting that these guns somehow rose up and chased down another person to have them killed. We all understand people were the root cause. Guns don't cause violence but they definitely help.
I've spent time in Iraq as a soldier and a contractor. I've personally used a blade and a firearm against another human being. As a civilian I own an assault rifle and a pistol because I am very confident in their abilities over knives and my hand to hand skills.
- aaronem 13y agoI do not wish to seem disrespectful or presumptuous in arguing with one who has so much more experience in these matters than I. But does it matter, to a dead man, precisely how his carcass came to be rendered inanimate? Does it matter to the man who killed him, beyond perhaps the degree of effort required, what sort of tool he used to do so?
