Some gun owners I respect. You ... not so much.
You did rest your case didn't you, or were you lying about that?

The point is, a gun wouldn't have save him. Indeed, if you're right, he probably had one.Quote:
Everyday teenager on his porch in New Orleans ... probably a gang related drive-by shooting.
Of course, all crimes are the fault of the perp. Hypothetically, if he tried to stab his entire family they might have overcome him. In reality, he shot them with a gun which happen(ed) to (be) handy when his insanity peaked.Quote:
Murder suicides are the fault of the perpetrator, and not the firearm. Hypothetically if guns did not exist, he probably would have stabbed her and hung himself as alternative means to kill.
I considered your opinion. You rested your case. Now you want to submit more anecdotal crap as evidence?

Some gun owners? Well, as a law-abiding gun owner, and in the spirit of the 2nd amendment and being an American, it would be my moral and civic responsibility as an armed citizen to come to your aid Trish if your life was being endangered by a criminal. That means I respect you as a human being and your right to life, and to live your life and die on your own terms, and not on the whimsical terms of a criminal who doesn't value your life. I own and train with firearms to defend life, not to just wait for the opportunity to legally shoot someone like the 'gun nut' you perceive me to be.Quote:

(edited for grammar)
By the way, if you rest your case you don't get a rebuttal.
Yeah right. Spoken like a true victim. Remember when I referred to your judgment? You'll be one the one that winds up wounded or dead should you handle such a situation yourself. I suppose you feel you can reason with a killer. Good luck.Quote:
