People can't be trusted with guns like they can't be trusted with religion.
Look at the homicide statistics for the one western country that has guns lying around the house compared to those for all the rest that have strict gun laws.
In those countries they use other things to kill each other. Like anything and everything. People who want to kill people will use anything handy.
I live near bear country (also cougar, copperhead snakes, ect). So to protect myself and those I care about I NEED a gun. No your right it's better that I get mauled and bleed to death to protect your high minded baseless argument.
So what do you think of them? America's statistics are up there with war-torn countries like Iran.
Coincidence or something to do owning a gun being as 'normal' as owning a car.
Statistics can be manipulated to say anything and often are when there is motivation. With that in mind lets look at something anti-gun people don't want to look at, knife violence. In your holy land of Europe your just as likely to die from a stabbing than a gun. That is seven times more likely than in the Americas. So what is the result? In some countries like China they have restricted people from buying knives. You can't buy pocket knives without proper ID. And in China proper ID can be hard to come by.
All this means nothing to me. My brother would have died at fifteen if I didn't have a gun.
The opening ceremony was marred by an attack by a drunken 16-year-old wielding a knife, who stabbed members of the public leaving the ceremony. Forty-one people were wounded,[14] six seriously, before the youth was arrested.[15] According to police, the youth says he cannot remember his act of violence and is still denying it. One of the first stabbing victims was HIV-positive, leading to worries that other victims may have been infected, although this did not prove to be the case. The youth was charged with attempted murder,[16] and was sentenced to seven years in prison for attempted manslaughter in 33 cases in 2007.
I've a ton of these. But I'm feeling lazy right now, so just one more.
The Osaka school massacre took place on June 8, 2001, at Ikeda Elementary School, an elite primary school affiliated with Osaka Kyoiku University in Osaka Prefecture, Japan. At 10:15 that morning, 37-year-old former janitor Mamoru Takuma entered the school armed with a kitchen knife and began stabbing numerous school children and teachers. He killed eight children, mostly between the ages of seven and eight, and seriously wounded thirteen other children and two teachers.
Do you think religion is a plague?

Sorry, I just hate people who are anti-gun and use that tired old logic.
Your right!
