Do you think guns kills people or people using the guns kill people?

If yo uthink about it, guns are fairly safe, they can not just shot them selves, so i am just a lil curious.

Let me see, guns don't get up and decided to go rob or shoot someone. They are not possessed and can't think, walk, or see. So I'm going to go with "b": The people using the guns kill people.

And before anyone tries to argue that having a guns makes someone more prone to shoot, that's not so. There are far too man gun owners in the USA that do not misuse their guns. There would be a whole lot more dead people in the country if that were the case. Knives kill more people with more efficiency than guns. Watching TV would leave you to believe otherwise, but it's not the case.

The problem with guns are we do not know how to respect them. In a time long ago, guns were apart of life and kids learned from their parents about how to use and respect the weapon. Now it is a status symbol or how tough you are. guns prove something now instead of help to define.

Anything can kill people. An accidental car accident can kill a person, so does that mean that the other driver is a killer?Or is the car the killer? Yes, guns kill people, and yes, cars kill people, and yes, people kill people. If their wasn't a gun available, another means would be found to kill, by the individual. It all comes down to the person.

people kill people. guns just make it much easier

People with guns kill people...actually stupid people kill people.

Guns don't have a mind of their own. People do.

The reason I say "stupid people" is because a smart person with the correct training in the handling of a firearm would be less likely to injure someone. The reason I say less likely is because accidents happen even to the best trained person.

people kill people and animals...guns just make it easier and less personal.

I never heard of a gun getting up off the couch and going down to the mall to shoot somebody by itself. The gun is just the means, but without a human being to pull the trigger, there is no killer.

a gun is a tool, it can be used for good or evil.

the person who used the gun killed the person. the gun is a tool. does a hammer build a house or does the person pounding the nails in is building the house?

It all depends on whose hands the gun is in. A gun in the wrong hand kills. So people using guns kill people.

the last time i look, i have never seen a gun walking down the street looking for someone to shoot. it takes a person to shoot one

Seeing how some guy stabbed and killed four people in NY today, I would tend to think it's the person who kills.

people using the guns kill, There are so many people out there that shouldn't have a gun. I have a gun and I know how to use it and yes it's for protection because anyone breaking into my home will be shot I'll ask questions later.

I think its the gun because the person is the one who pulls the trigger but the bullet that came from the gun is what does the killing

Guns don't kill people, people kill people.

It is the rounds from the weapon that kill you. Also the massive loss of blood.

The documented number of cases of a gun killing a person with out a persons help is zero. Even accidents are due to negligence of a human being. Its funny how many guns get sentenced to death (melting) but those who use them don't.

People kill people...I have a gun...its never killed a soul....a knife , a bat, a car...all can be used to kill people...

i think that people kill people. they just use guns as tools to do so. if you take guns away, people are either gonna get guns illegally or find some other way to kill people. either way, murder is not gonna go away.

people using guns of course. A gun itself can not do anything but lay there.

PEOPLE KILL...the problem is there are too many guns

People kill people and they use lots of things besides guns. Why is gun violence so prevalent in America seems to be the question to me? Because they're so readily available, because our society is so violent (movies, video games, etc.), because we are callous? There are other countries with violence problems of course, but not among other "world leaders" do we see this.

Both kill

The person pulling the trigger and the gun that is loaded is the weapon. If gun wasnt loaded then noone would be killed

cops kill people not the gun


foxi_brown_eyes
Like they say.... It takes two to tango right??
The real question is... Is the man with the gun at least 10% smarter than the object he's working with? Because that's a big rule in my book!! (hee hee)

people kill people, the fact that guns are as easy to get as a candy bar definitely doesn't help, but in the end it's still people killing people
