I know this isn't exactly gun related, but it does illustrate that when guns are banned, violence doesn't end, it just is effected by different means.

I thought that must be a joke... SAD :disgusted:swillden said:"Doctors say knives are too pointed".
Seriously. People in the UK are calling for a ban on long, pointy kitchen knives.
Violence is horrifying, especially when it involves young people with promising lives ahead of them. But at what point will the world realize that it's violent people that cause the problem, not their chosen tools of violence? Take away one tool, and violent people will simply choose another.
I take it you have never felt the sting of the corner of a pillow case hitting your eyeball. I think I have made my point. :raisedbrow:Jeff Johnson said:Maybe people will only be allowed to have pillows. Then society might be safe.
No wait! Pillows are deadly weapons. They can be used to suffocate. Better put the entire world into padded cells with straight-jackets. Then we might be safe. Ya think?
