Violence is violence. Its the tool you use to do violence. Taking away the gun will not stop the violence. Will you ban knives, baseball bats, hammers and car antennas next? The Columbine killers tried to make use of a twenty pound propane bottle as a bomb. Will you ban propane bottles? DUH!!!!!!
So true.
When I was in Australia, I was amazed at how many people were beaten to death with cricket bats, golf clubs and chairs — Australia has pretty strict gun control, so it’s less common to hear about people getting shot. But the violence does not seem to be diminished.
