85 million law abiding gun owners didn't kill anyone today

[Dazzy]

85 million people with guns didn't kill anyone today.

However 153 knife owners stabbed someone to death.
195 sober drivers killed someone in traffic accidents.
16 people were killed with bats/crowbars/candlesticks

Moral of the story, Ban objects with mass!

Makes sense, but doesn't really need its own thread. Post this in the 2 current gun threads.

[Purlina]

Well they probably wouldn't be law abiding if they killed someone.

Made up numbers are made up. You can't get a day by day tracker of people killed and what object they were killed on the day as that information is rarely released to the public until the police feel the weapon of assault is no longer something they can use to track down the murderer.

Moral of the story. People killed people yesterday with various types of weapons, and everyone should take psych tests along with physical checkups to determine if they are a threat to others. Even more so if you are a gun owner. A full psych workup for any gun owner.

You really dont get how much of a double standard you just put out there, do you?

[Jimer]

Ok, I'll bite.... what about the law-abiding knife/crowbar/bat owners and drivers who didn't kill people today opposed to the not law-abiding gun owners? Got any statistics on that? Where are your statistics even from anyway? As for banning all those objects and vehicles, why don't we ban art/music/games/internet while we are at it, just to be on the safe side of things.

How many gun threads do we need at one time?

Guns only have one purpose tho. Should everyone be entitled to have landmines too to keep people off their lawns?

What is that ONE purpose??

[Purlina]

What is that ONE purpose??

To shoot things?

[Belize]

I see what you did there... But I'm curious how many non-law abiding citizens shot someone else.

I understand your point, but leaving that statistics makes your data incomplete.

It's like saying "8 out 10 doctors recommend such and such product. I'm not telling you how the doctors were chosen and I'm going to leave out the reasons why they recommend or do not recommend, but look at my numbers aren't they pretty".

There are lies, damned lies and then there are statistics...

[vassilisz]

sounds like trolling...

[kazih]

If 2 angry people get into a fight how likely is that fight to cause deaths if ppl have melee weapons/unarmed instead of guns?
The major point against loose gun laws is that you simply get more deaths from incidents.

[Rukentuts]

Well they probably wouldn't be law abiding if they killed someone.

We have a winner!

Calling out law-abiding gun owners, then singling out non-law abiding owners of other weapons is baseless trolling.

[Valleera]

Until someone throws a folding chair. Then ALL bets are off...

[flakes]

I really hope the op is trying to be funny or something..

[iamthedevil]

I'm a knife owner.... I'm also a fork owner, and a whisk owner.

[Vizardlorde]

By the same logic about 240million knife owners not killing someone today in the US. I mean unless you are homeless or a kid you should have at least 1 knife in your kitchen.

[dementeddark]

lol look u fing trolls he is making a joke thats all a little light at the end of the tunnel that so bad ???? o well keep up the good fight lol

Fun fact. Most Landmines are not designed to kill. They are mostly designed to take out the Legs, Feet,Groin and send the combatant home to demoralise the population and to use up enemy resources.
