Re: Gun Control 1: Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang

Heard on Chicago Newsradio that two dozen people have been shot in Chicago. Since TUESDAY. It's only Thursday morning :eek:
 
Re: Gun Control 1: Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang

New York City has been undergoing a wave of slashings this year, up something like 80% over last year.

Some are your "typical" disagreements, but a disturbingly high number have been random, a person just going around slashing people for no apparent reason whatsoever.

Guns, knives, in some cases machetes, is it the weapon that is the problem, or the person wielding the weapon?

I don't think the guns are the problem in these slashing cases.

The weapon isn't the problem? They are both weapons? Then it sounds like gun supporters would be totally cool with full-on gun control. After all, they've got this wonderful knife option for self defense.

I prefer a separation, a stand-off distance, from the nut-bag attacking me if I have to defend myself.

Ah...so for the gun supporter, guns are a much more reliable and lethal form of self defense than knives. But for criminals, guns and knives are just as lethal. I see.
