This gun show is getting ridiculous. Inciting fury, people losing their minds, and blatant ignorance of reason all around! Good times on all news networks. This will be short.
Guns are inanimate objects. They do not take any action. You do not get angry at a knife for cutting you, it's the person wielding it that you get angry at.
People get shot all the time. Usually its by someone they know, and is a result of domestic violence or drug/gang issues. It's when the media decides to cover these things in such intensity that makes it seem like they happen all the time.
People scare perpetrators off with guns all the time. It's when the media decides NOT to cover these things with intensity that makes it seem as if it never happens.
Guns are equalizers. I am a weak, small framed girl. I cannot overpower a lot of people, and I don't want to be close enough to them to have to! I have been around guns that were not locked up my entire life.
Guns do not make for more violence. In fact, the UK, where they have extremely strict gun laws and the entire populace is brainwashed to fear and hate guns, is in fact the most violent country in Europe, and is in fact more violent that America.
And finally, legislation is not the answer. The issue is that the state does not have the right to restrict your right to defend yourself from the people who will ALWAYS have guns... ya know, like criminals (people who don't follow laws) and the government (who, by the way, does not care about you. Stop believing that. It's not true.)
Simple.
