jgoose71 0 #1 June 1, 2012 Seriously, A nutter with a gun, a nutter with teeth, a nutter with a knife, a nutter with a college degree, a nutter with an ice pick, another nutter with a gun.... Going thru the post here on SC, there are a lot of nutters out there. Did I miss any? How long will this go on before people realize that it's not the item the person is holding, it's the person.

I'm not sure the victims of the hillside strangler would agree. Dead is dead. I will agree that guns give less physically capable people an advantage over more physically capable people they might not have with a lesser weapon. But then, that's the point of a gun. So, the converse of your argument is that an innocent person with a gun is safer from dangerous nutters than an innocent person with panty hose. The weapon merely determines who has the compartive advantage. It is a tool. The dangerous nutter becomes a more dangerous nutter. The protector becomes a more effective protector.I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe that is because more people carry guns.Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

davjohns 1 #10 June 1, 2012 Years ago, I noticed a difference in media wording when it came to events involving firearms. I would read, "The victim was killed by a 12 gage shotgun". Some articles don't mention that anyone was holding the shotgun. It's as if gangs of shotguns are hanging out in alleys waiting for victims. Meanwhile, "The victim was stabbed with a knife." Well that makes sense. 'With' means that someone was weilding the knife. There was another person involved. Got it. So, why is someone killed 'by' a firearm, but 'with' another weapon? Because being killed by a firearm eliminates the person who formulated the intent and weilded the firearm. It would be more accurate to say, "The victim was killed by David Johnson with a 12 gage shotgun". But that puts the blame on me, and exonerates the tool, doesn't it? Listen to the media and read more critically. See if you notice this funky wording to put blame on the firearm. I hear it pretty routinely.I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet..
