Break ins occur far less frequently in areas where more people illegally own guns

Am I seeing an underlying "NAP of animals" thing in play here?

You just made that implication because you're trying to defend guns using retarded logic that you cannot see your own faulty arguements.

In the medieval era, was a sword a weapon exclusively?

whether or not guns are weapons - btw legally, anything used to assault someone is a weapon - isn't important

You could make the argument that a gun is tool for killing

Yes it was Jek. A knife wasn't. A sword was.

even so, what is your point?

Did people not use the blade to cut things in the field?

at which point does a bladed weapon stop being a weapon then?

Different countries have different laws on this.

what is the distinction?

12 cm

Length of blade, concealment, etc.

In mine

no you've already ignored the laws

im talking logically

im not interested in whatever obligatory number the bureaucrats have decided to set

You haven't lived in the American West, so I can understand why you wouldn't acknowledge that a gun can be a tool

It varies. There's no one answer.
But you can compare all the numbers and use the common denominator if you want.

It's about perception

lmao so we should just average up all the EU's draconian knife laws for the one true answer? what a laugh.

In America, to legal gun owners, a gun is at the same time a weapon, a tool, and a recreational implement.

heres a super easy fix: stop treating people like they don't have individual agency.

In Switzerland it's legal to own guns.
Guns are not considered tools.

I literally dont care what switzerland does

i think you've just invented argumentum ad europa

I mean we're statistically more civilised.

lmao sure my dude

That was uncalled for

i couldnt resist

RESIST

a cave-dwelling american troglodyte like myself cannot possibly comprehend the technological and societal bliss that is europe

and their Muslim no go zones

And rape gangs

Either way, Jek. No one is trying to tell you you shouldn't have guns.
But for the love of sense. Stop trying to defend "A gun is a tool"

Because that's literally retarded.

A gun is a tool

*sighs*
