 "guns don't kill people... PEOPLE KILL PEOPLE..."

I love this remark!!!  It makes people believe that guns arn't part of =
the
problem, that you cant blaim them for the murders and everything.  But =
let
me tell you, people do kill people, this is true, but a whole lot more
people kill people WITH GUNS!!  If a gun did not exist, true you =
couldn't
defend your self from burgles or theives, but then again those burglers =
and
theives wouldn't have guns, and there would be a lot less hold ups if =
they
couldn't say "Give me your monney or I'll shoot" instead they would have =
to
say "Give me your monney or I'll try and chaise you down with this bat".
Also some times its not even all of the persons fault when he kills =
someone,
there are times when some idiot wants to try and see if they can steal
something, so they buy a gun (not knowing its power to take lives) and
accidently drop it, or accidently pull the hair trigger some guns have.  =
So
what im saying is that guns DO KILL PEOPLE, but only because of the =
idiots
who use them.
