"For one?" What else you got?
And it is, as a matter of fact, the same damn thing. Blaming an intimate object for the actions
a person uses it for is ignorant. But if you want to blame an object for what it COULD be
used for, how about knives? They were designed to cut and stab. The fact that they're also
used to do it to dead meat should be irrelevant by your logic- their PURPOSE is put to use
killing people, thus we should register every single one and limit how many a person can
own... maybe even take them away completely.
same ol' argument.. would you be ok with people packing anthrax around? mustard gas? portable nukes in briefcases to work? they are inanimate so it should be safe right?

Of course not... but that's not the point we're talking about.
I don't want to get shot by anyone, or stabbed, or clubbed like a baby seal. But my desire to
stay alive has absolutely no effect on whether or not someone would do these things to me.

Your examples, by the way, kill people indiscriminately. That is to say, you have no control over them
once the trigger is pulled, unlike a gun, knife, or frying pan.

AKA "I'll choose which examples I like and the ones I don't can't be used." Typical.

Wow, this is sad. I use to watch his videos back in the day. I'm sure all the pro and anti-gun nutjobs will find an excuse to blame each other over this, but it doesn't take a lobbyist to notice the world is going crazy.

i don't know why you guys keep sayin silly crap like that. isn't even remotely the same thing.
cars werent designed to kill for one.

No bro, guns were invented for turning over the TV, or to help carve the Turkey on Christmas day. Everyone knows that.

If you want to ban guns, then oxygen should be banned too, because you can start fire in oxygen and fire kills!!

Fires have purposes other than death. It's awesome tool for cooking or controlling ecosystems.

Guns only exist to kill. No other purpose exist for guns.
