Gun Control

then should playing cards come with a pic of someone that lost everything? What about bicycles coming with a vid of a kid getting run over? Beer with a pic of a person dying from DWI?

It is diferent you see the purpose of guns is to kill, can you say the same for all these examples?

Not directly, it can be used as such, but what other purpose does a gun have if not to kill?

Knives are meant to cut, it just so happens that cutting can also lead to killing, what are guns made for? Nukes weren't used because both sides knew the effects of a nuke, does everyone know the effects of a gun?

I was insisting on why guns deserve special guidance, you said that if we do it for guns, then we should do it for everything that can kill, I then said that it is not necessary, that guns are diferent, because even for protection, it protects because it is made to kill, and in trained hands can do so efficiently. People need to be more responsible in how they use their tools.

how can you not justify the rest?

No matter what tool the individual decides to use.

Imagine if you did put a picture on every gun, you would have to put it on all of them, not everyone needs it, but how would the seller know who needs it or not?



Pretty much everything humans invent have a reason, light bulbs give light, shovels dig holes, playing cards to offer an alternative game, but guns either kill, or the threat to kill, which gives protection(what keeps someone from shooting you when you have a gun to their face?), there is a diference to what the tool was made for and what it can be used for.



With a knife or similar, how many do you think a pycho can kill before someone stops him? Is it the same for guns? Do you think that if that boy Cho had a knife her would have killed 33? Or is it diferent with a gun?

You fault the gun, i fault the user.

Exactly, there would probably have to be a government entity that would police this, probably hire thousands of people and cost millions if not billions of dollars? And that's just for guns?

I've seen a guys kill about a thousand men women and children with koolaid. Oh and a Senator and a news crew too. I've seen co-ordinated fanatics kill three thousand people ramming planes into buildings. And before too long i suppose i'll see some one detonate a dirty bomb in some major city of a Western country, so no a gun is no different

And I agree with you, a gun cannot kill by itself, so how do you pass a mesage to the user? Here is Brazil cigarettes come with pictures of black lungs, deformed babies, and other effects of cigarettes, along with a warning from the minstry of health saying that there is no safe rate of consuming this product.



I'm talking about some warning, I just said visually, because it is what causes the most impact nowadays. Maybe hand out panflets to every gun store?



These are all exceptions. And I bet the poison in that koolaid came with a warning, aswell as the fuel in the plane probably had an inflamable picture on it, and bombs also have warning pertaining to what their effects are, if these are deemed necessary, why not for guns?

And has all that stopped the use of tabacco?

Do you have any proposals as to how to decrease gun related violence? And all violence for that matter?
