"Lets try that out shall we?
Me squeezing my finger back and forth doesn't kill you, me holding a gun squeezing my finger could."
Exactly...so glad you agree with me 100%.
You flexing you finger does nothing.
YOU pulling the trigger on the gun has an effect.
Like I said.... Guns do not kill people.... people with guns kill people.
You are the one claiming guns kill people.... guns only kill people when human intervention is involved.
Wrong.
Americans shot by dogs

Amazingly,
I filmed my pistol for 12 hours.....
It never moved, nor did it ever fire a shot.
Sure looks like people with guns kill people.... not the guns themselves killing anybody.
Can someone tell me if this is acceptable evidence in the court of law?
If I film someone for 12 hours and they don't shoot someone is this then proof that they never have nor ever will?
Drink driving doesn't kill people, people do. Don't ban drink driving.
Selling grenades in vending machines doesn't kill anyone, people do. Lets sell grenades.
So you are saying that if I had filmed an extra hour, there is a possibility that the gun would have walked across the room by itself and shot someone? You argument is invalid.
GUNS DO NOT KILL PEOPLE... PEOPLE WITH GUNS KILL PEOPLE.
duh

You might want to alert the medical world of your miraculous discovery.
No Doctor... those 6 bullets didn't kill him, people did.
Nurse, I'm calling it, cause of death.... people with guns.
Earthquakes don't kill people, people do. That building that collapsed on someone didn't kill them, nor did the earthquake that made it collapse, the person who built it killed them.

Kill all the dogs... problem solved.
You do know that it took a human to leave the weapon where an animal could cause it to discharge..right?
You do know that a human had to have loaded it... unless you are saying that dogs know how to load weapons.
Looks like you are wrong.

BREAKING NEWS: Crackpot decides no object can "do" anything.
Computers suddenly stop working, cars fail to start, the Earth stops spinning.
Ban sticks and rocks? Are they man-made weapons? Are you really asking whether we should ban sticks and rocks?
In other news, man completely fails to grasp the concept of unnecessary risk.
Guns don't do anything... haahaha... has to be a classic comment.
Of course they do. Please educate yourself before coming back to this topic.
The right to keep and bear arms has always been central to the American identity. The American Revolution was sparked by British attempts to confiscate guns. After the Civil War, America changed the Constitution to defeat America's first gun control organization, the Ku Klux Klan. When Hitler and Stalin demonstrated how gun registration paves the way for gun confiscation which paves the way for genocide, Americans resolved to make sure it never happens here.
Gun control is not an issue of left vs. right, or urban vs. rural. Liberal icons such as Hubert Humphrey and Eleanor Roosevelt recognized the right to arms as fundamental to preventing large-scale tyranny by criminal governments, and small-scale tyranny by ordinary criminals. Barack Obama's gun control program is founded on disinformation, and is a direct assault on the Constitution. To learn more read The Truth about Gun Control by David B. Kopel:
I wonder why the people living in England, Scotland or the majority of Europe don't feel the need to possess a gun to protect themselves.

In fact, many people living in Europe, and I mean millions and millions, DO WISH they had better access to a firearm for protection against beasts and criminals, and especially now terrorists too.
Of all the people who will die this year in the USA, firearms deaths are about 10% the number of all accidental deaths in a given year. Then you have murder by many other means. And Medical issues take the bulk of the rest of human life.
Accidental discharge of firearms results in very fewer accidental deaths usually even lower than drownings and fires. What are the gun laws in the jurisdiction you reside within Sudonim. What is your quality of life where you live?? Lets discuss the laws and background your opinions are coming from as you attack ours and the rights that protect our liberty.

Cars do not start and computers do not work without human intervention. Same as guns.
You fail again...care to try for a 4th attempt?
