NOOO! Really! I thought that people killed people. I never knew that guns had part in it.

The real stunner is that people died before the gun was invented.

the gun was a milestone in human conflict. For the first time a warrior could kill without ever exposing himself to death or injury, provided he had the bigest and newest gun.

Another thing that the gun played in a role in was equality of the masses. After Samuel Colt and others whom he had stolen ideas from made mass production of firearms feasible, the equation changed. Wayatt Earp could no longer get away with raping Miss Kitty, there were consequences. Even the little old lady from Pasadena was now endowed with balls.

So in a world of ICBM's the democraps still think the way to control people for their own detriment is by taking away the right of self defense. It ain't gonna work, the terrorists have WMD's now. That's progress.

No way!

Wait! It was probably global warming or second hand smoke that killed em, so, OK, I believe you.
