since i was little i grew up around guns my dad was a hunter and he taught hunter safety courses and my dad taught us how to use guns and how to hunt guns aren't bad its the people that use them for the wrong reasons and if people relized what guns can doand when and when to use them for the right reason like hunting and or protection . instead of useing them for crime . i was taught how to use a gun for hunting and im not against guns but against the guns getting into the hands of criminals.If you are going to have a gun for hunting or for protection please make sure you take a safety course .and make sure you know how to use your gun safely.guns don't kill people people kill people
Honestly, the validity of Blk's assertion aside, I have no problem with guns having a death association. People against guns can call them instruments of death all they want. My response is "good, that makes them even more useful in extreme situations." Were guns created for the purpose of killing? I don't know. I suppose they could have been accidentally created, or a smaller evolution of the cannon, but that's surely what they are most used for next to intimidation. Be offended by this if you want, but all I've conceded to does help with the effectiveness of guns.
