Re: "Guns Save Lives"
Why do we always see news reports about guns used in crime, but never see a report about people that are alive today because they used a gun to defend themselves,,

Re: "Guns Save Lives"
The only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun.
In the above statement, you are blaming/crediting the human, not the gun.

Re: "Guns Save Lives"
Remove all guns from society, crimes will still be committed. Remove all knives from society, crimes will still be committed. Remove all rocks (pointy sticks, poisons, money, women, etc.) from society, crimes will still be committed. What you end up with is what we had before any of these were implemented as weapons, a very uncivilized society.

Perhaps you should rethink that word.

Simple, asshat bandit with a gun has no respect for no one until he finds out that good guy has no respect for him and can send him to his maker with a gun.
If a bad guy uses a crowbar to break in, we blame the bad guy, not the crowbar. If I help someone trapped and use a crowbar, it was only with the help of the crowbar.

Re: "Guns Save Lives"
One cannot blame a gun for doing good, or blame it for doing bad. The firearm is an inanimate object.
The whole premise made no sense to me.My Feedback - http://forum.pafoa.org/showthread.ph...ight=stainless
