AverageJoe Report post Posted October 22, 2015 You can pull stats and percentages from just about anywhere. I think the best pro gun argument is to simply look at hitler and ww2 Germany era. No one had any way to fight back. Also during WW1 Americans sent their guns to friends and family members in Europe where guns were outlawed. This was a temporary measure allowed in England/Brittain/ whatever the heck its called now so people could defend themselves during the war with more than sticks and stones. A family member of mine sent their gun overseas during this program and has a letter thanking him. That is all the info i need to make the decision to own guns forever. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
5guyshunting Report post Posted October 22, 2015 Maybe the anti-gun peeps should all buy these. Gun shaped phone cases are ingenious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SunDevil Report post Posted October 23, 2015 Have your daughter tell her friend to look at taking gun deaths due to suicide out of the numbers she researches. There are a lot of these and most numbers that are quoted have not made this adjustment. Very good point to bring up in an essay 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Non-Typical Solutions Report post Posted October 23, 2015 This caught my interest as my son has chosen a similar topic for one of his classes. I did a quick google looking for a picture I have seen of the guy with an anti gun poster standing next to the guy with the anti spoon poster cause he is fat. Here was the link I tried to go into.... if guns kill people, then do spoons make people fat? | Yahoo Answers https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid... Nov 4, 2013 - ... that if guns kill people, then pens must misspell words, spoons must make ... But let's take it a step further. .... Talking about spoons I am working on a bill to ban spoons and make 2 year probation for possession of spoons ? If guns kill people then don't baseball bats, knives, cars and all ... Aug 25, 2015 If Guns Kill People Then...? Apr 19, 2007 More results from answers.yahoo.com So I click into this link and this is what it took me to.... This question does not exist or is under review. It is a great topic for kids to get engaged with and learn about what really kills people and the laws that are already in place intended to protect us. Right now our society is upside down and bassackwards with no common sense. Somebody needs to get in touch with Yahoo and help them out they don't realize that this question does exist and the reviews are many!!! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
