Anyone who uses a gun on a human is a coward.

There is no respect for life when you use a gun. It's too easy to kill someone.

How about if I use a car? Or an airplane maybe?

You live in Ohio. WTF happens there. I live in freakin LA. I don't have to carry a freakin knife like an idiot. You act smart on the streets and youll have no worries.

I know you are thinking "Well, dont go to those bad places". But sometimes you have to go to places like that for one reason or another. Or sometimes you live in places like that because you cannot yet afford the rent in a better neighborhood. But I guess since you dont feel the need to carry, no one else should be allowed. And if people carry anything of value on them, they're stupid, because it's better to just give the thugs everything you own and hope they only beat on you a little, right?

You cant always carry around an Akita, though they do make a great equalizer when three guys try to jump you.

So a 110lbs woman that uses a gun to stop a 250lbs man from raping/murdering her is a coward? Even if she doesn't fire it?

So let's say I'm called to a bank robbery in progress. The suspects have everyone taken hostage and I enter the bank and kill one or more of them. Am I a coward?

I would have to say... YES, you are most definately a coward. A real man would have walked in, taken off his shirt to display the 'S' on his chest, and then proceeded to whip the asses of the cowardly hostage-takers with his bare hands.

I'll see if I can requisition the PD to get the necessary equipment.

I shall now go out to my backyard and kill 3 rabbits and 5 squirrels with my Springfield (overkill, huh? ), and then I shall burn their carcasses over an open fire...just for fun.

So anytime a woman protects herself from a man (and you can generally assume that the man is larger and stronger than her), and does so by using a gun, it is cowardly? Try smart. Fair play went out the window the day a caveman looked at a rock and figured out that by throwing it he could hurt people without letting them get close enough to hurt him. Guns are just very efficient rock throwing aids.

Try stepping away from the computer and living a little in the real world.

You people are just asking for trouble. What the hell are you doing then. Selling drugs?

Asking for trouble? WTF? It's not like he goes around waving his knife in the air :roll:

It's so dumb. You're not gonna get attacked. There's no reason to promote violence having weapons in your possesion. Yeah obviously he doesn't wave it around, but it's not setting a very good example carrying around a knife.

OMFG! Is this kid serious? Setting an example? For who? Are you guarenteeing me that I will not get attacked? You sure are an optimist! LOL! There is NO ONE on Earth that can convince me otherwise...

You live in Ohio. WTF happens there. I live in freakin LA. I don't have to carry a freakin knife like an idiot. You act smart on the streets and youll have no worries.

Columbus had over 120 homocides last year, the highest in it's history... again, you can;t change my mind about this. Go home and play hop scotch in from of your Beverly Hills, white picket fence home.

what the @#$*( are you talking about. I see kids get beat up on the streets all the time. Why? Because they are STUPID. Walk around with diamond earrings and walkmans, crap like that. If you get beat up then it means that you obviously

Rofl, so now you're saying that people shouldn't be able to walk around with a WALKman and feel safe in doing so?

I know some guy who was almost killed. Some guys beat the crap out of him for his walkman

And if your friend had a knife he could have ended that real quick. You're arguing against yourself. Or are you saying that not only is it dumb to carry a knife, but it's also not 'smart' to carry a walkman? I'm really lost because this doesn't make sense.

Ok people you're not getting it. Look if that guy would have stabbed the other guy, he would have been screwed. First, because he was taken 2 on 1, the guys would have found the knife and used it on him. Second if he did anything, it would only provoke the other guys. It's not safe to carry anything worth some significant money because thugs off the streets will go for anything like that. That's all I'm trying to say.

This is somewhat true though. Alright I have to say that I am wrong here. But most people are way to over protective of themselves. Many people just don't know what a true bad area is. Also a point the get across is that often if you get beaten up, its often by more than one guy and they will often find your weapon. If that happens, you're screwed.

I guess you could say the same thing for a bow then. They were both devised to hurl a projectile at speed and with accuracy.

A gun is a tool. How you use it defines whether or not you are cowardly. To ambush someone in order to shoot them dead is cowardly. To defend yourself from a dangerous attacker is not. For you to call someone who defends themselves a coward just boggles the mind. I guess you would prefer it if the criminals just had open season on citizens, but most of us wouldn't agree with you.

Guns are evil person killing things that have no place in modern society. No one needs guns anymore to protect themselves from crime or wild animals. We have this thing called police who we pay to protect us and will always be right there when we call. Anyway, it?s not like a government would ever force its citizens to do something against their collective will. When has that ever happened?

As far as sporting use goes, they are too dangerous to be used safely and can go off at any moment thereby hurting or killing innocent people. Hunting is a barbaric practice that has outlived its usefulness and should be made illegal because it is no longer needed.

As a matter of fact, any weapon that can kill or hurt should be outlawed. Crime should drop to practically zero then. Any other situation where you are threatened should be avoidable by never going out at night, traveling, or carrying anything of value. You should always be able to reason with the person who wants to inflict bodily harm so that?s not a concern either.

Too dangerous? Sorry, but if you take all available precautions, NO firearm accidents will EVER occur.

Hunting is no longer needed? Hello, without hunting, species would become overpopulated and possibly become extinct.

Well I agree with what you are saying and that would have been more fitting for what I was trying to say, however I would like to make a comment. I think that people should be trained in some kind of self defense. A 100lb woman can take down a 250lb man if she knows how to defend herself. Maybe what I should say is that using a gun should be the very last line of defense if everything else fails.

No, but many people might believe that, so I had to set them straight.
