  • No, I think you misunderstood, and want to turn a very important debate into a pedantic point about sheer ratios without wider context.

    Increased gun ownership has been repeatedly shown to increase gun violence. That’s a fact. To say that it’s “responsible” to increase or even maintain the levels of gun ownership is false.

    To say or imply that most gun ownership is responsible is like saying that most cigarette smoking is responsible…except when you consider every fucking horrible ill it wreaks upon society.

    You shouldn’t run your mouth with false information that is so “very simple and scooped”, because that misses the entire fucking point.

    Be less simple, simpleton.



  • The fact that the number one killer of children in the US is guns?

    You are asking me how that fact relates to responsible gun ownership?

    Think really hard about how those children were killed by those guns, and maybe you can figure it out.

    The children who died by guns are either:

    1. Killing themselves, meaning that an irresponsible gun owner gave that child access to a gun, either deliberately or not deliberately. Irresponsible!

    2. Being killed by the owner of the gun. This one should be self explanatory. It’s irresponsible to use the gun you own to kill a child.

    3. Killed by someone with access to someone else’s gun. Again, whoever owned this gun was irresponsible enough to allow their weapon to be accessed by someone else to kill children.

    You can’t be this naive.
