    “It wasn’t the bullet that killed you, it was the gun.” C’mon, dude. You’re being obtuse.

          Not everyone who supports gun rights are right-wing idiots.

          Who was it again that said “Under no pretext should arms and ammunition be surrendered; any attempt to disarm the workers must be frustrated, by force if necessary”?

            You’re right but the right wing idiots are the ones perpetuating that kind of obviously flawed argument and not one of the armed socialist flavors.

            But sure, go off

      More “it wasn’t the gun, it was the one who pulled the trigger”, which is a true statement. We don’t blame guns for murder. We blame the murderer.

      What? It was the shooter. You know? The human that makes choices. Tools and objects can’t be held accountable.
