    You must be blind if you think that other weapons aren’t used. Our society needs to be fixed, Pandoras box is opened, you can’t fix an issue if you don’t focus on the underlying issues that are the true cause.

      But, like, let’s be real - if we had no guns, less kids would die.

      You know, Not banning guns would be an interesting stance from the Pro-Life party if Carlin hadn’t already pointed out how duplicitous they are on that front.

        If I could snap my fingers and all the guns vanished, I would, because it would mean no one would ever need to defend themselves ever again, but we don’t exist in that world.

            Tons of stuff we can do, but trying to magically make the guns vanish is like putting a bandaid on a cancer patient. That’s the logic coming from the anti-2a crowd.
