both are weapons

2017-11-06 17:07:38 UTC  

One's a tool.

2017-11-06 17:07:52 UTC  

Both are tools

2017-11-06 17:08:02 UTC  

A gun is not a tool. It has one purpose.

2017-11-06 17:08:09 UTC  

That's the difference between gun owners and non owners

2017-11-06 17:08:19 UTC  

its purpose is decided by the person using it.

2017-11-06 17:08:26 UTC  

a device or implement, especially one held in the hand, used to carry out a particular function

2017-11-06 17:08:28 UTC  

hmmmm

2017-11-06 17:09:05 UTC  

to think that the manufacturers intended purpose is in any way relevant is ridiculous

2017-11-06 17:09:52 UTC  

A hammer is as much a tool or weapon as a gun

2017-11-06 17:10:10 UTC  

Or even...A sickle

2017-11-06 17:10:10 UTC  

So in what way can you use a gun then?

2017-11-06 17:10:35 UTC  

how about recreational shooting since thats 99% of the ammunition expended in the US

2017-11-06 17:10:55 UTC  

Currently there is an epidemic of wild pigs in the central US

2017-11-06 17:10:59 UTC  

why do effectively nonlethal calibers like .22LR wildly outsell large bore calibers?

2017-11-06 17:11:19 UTC  

Because squirrels ruin our birdfeeders

2017-11-06 17:11:23 UTC  

most people own guns exclusively for recreation

2017-11-06 17:11:31 UTC  

So you're undermining your own point by making a different statement.

2017-11-06 17:11:37 UTC  

or hunting, or defense

2017-11-06 17:11:47 UTC  

Hunting and defense are both using the gun for killing.

2017-11-06 17:11:56 UTC  

Gheto safaris?

2017-11-06 17:12:07 UTC  

yes but thats like saying we should ban fire extinguishers to prevent fires.

2017-11-06 17:12:15 UTC  

No, it's not. Not even close.

2017-11-06 17:12:28 UTC  

Why is having a gun for home defense a bad thing then?

2017-11-06 17:12:38 UTC  

I never made that statement.

2017-11-06 17:13:11 UTC  

Having a gun or having an arsenal

2017-11-06 17:13:14 UTC  

your argument hinges on guns being used "for killing" and that somehow justifies banning them despiute the non sequitur

2017-11-06 17:13:21 UTC  

I never made that statement either.

2017-11-06 17:13:23 UTC  

the number of guns is literally irrelevant

2017-11-06 17:13:49 UTC  

if you're safe and responsibe with one gun you will continue being safe and responsible with a stockpile of them

2017-11-06 17:14:11 UTC  

It makes theft easier

2017-11-06 17:14:16 UTC  

lol how?

2017-11-06 17:14:36 UTC  

Need to commit only one burglary

2017-11-06 17:14:40 UTC  

do gunsafes not exist in your country? I can buy them at fucking costco.

2017-11-06 17:14:43 UTC  

You made the, apologise the rudeness, but. Retarded statement that a gun can be used as a tool. Which it cannot.
Comparing them to knives, which are tools. Is not the same comparison.
If you're comparing them to swords? Sure. Then we can compare it.

2017-11-06 17:15:05 UTC  

I never made any statement on whether guns should be banned or not.

2017-11-06 17:15:10 UTC  

if I use a shotgun with blanks to run a boat-to-boat line charge is it still a weapon?

2017-11-06 17:15:11 UTC  

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

2017-11-06 17:15:23 UTC  

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

2017-11-06 17:15:25 UTC  

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

2017-11-06 17:15:51 UTC  

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