The point isn't If it's bad or not, of course it's all bad.
But If I had to notify 30 families of their deceased parents over 1 family, the choice is obvious.
You are right the guns won't shoot anyone by themselves, but they're very much an easy access to whoever wants to mass kill people.
Trying to solve people's heads is a long term effort, and taking away guns is a short term bandaid. The thing is people are dying Now, you need to save people now, while simultaneously trying to solve the root problem.
If you're thinking only talking to people Now, will help anyone, we're in for many more kill streaks
You make it sound that changing peoples minds are a super easy task compared to removing guns.
I for one am saying that both things should be done at the same time.
Lets end this here, you're trying to poke flaws in the person you're discussing with, instead of being civil and analyzing the problem, I pray that neither of us pay no stab tax, jesus.
I agree. This guy's been all over this thread and all he's really said is "wouldn't it be better if nobody died?" Yeah of course it would. No one can argue with that and no one should argue with the poster above you because it isn't productive at all.
