Guns were designed to hunt and protect not murder just as baseball bats were designed to hit baseballs not murder. Been in the middle of several shootouts and I ca assure you you if you responded there and there were no guns present you would still be cleaning up the mess and bodies. Those guys would have killed each other weather guns were there or not. Guns don't kill people , people do.(The gun is the tool just like a knife,bat,tire iron, bumper jack, bowling ball, rolling pin, rock, pipe bomb, fist, boot, force feeding funnel, automobile (and yes they have been used) spoon, newspaper, toothbrush, bottle, pool cue,.........

My uncle was a federal marshal and has cleaned up after many shootings and was an avid gun collector and sport shooter as well as hunter. The gun is a tool nothing more.How would we defend against a government gone amok if we were disarmed? A disarmed person is a subject a responsible armed person is a citizen. When guns are outlawed only outlaws will own guns.

I learned all I need to know about life by killing smart people and eating their brains.
