Are Guns Evil?

Thank you.

Why would you feel that? You just did a very magnanimous act.

Don't rub it in.

Please.

I didn't see the comment, but I think I'm grateful.

In evil hands they are.

what of toddlers and children who got hold of it and killed siblings/parent?

Who was evil in that picture?

You're not going to tell me it was deserved because of their stupid parents...I hope.

In evil hands they are evil, in innocent hands they are dangerous.

It would have taken me a couple of days to find such a good answer.

Guns are residences of evil just waiting to happen.

Killing is evil - it is the absolute morality...

I'm not into moral relativism where the killing is only evil depending on who's doing it.

It was a glorious comment. Truly a shining beacon of hope in a dark tribulant world.

Alas, it shined too brightly and as such burned out so quickly......

That and I may have threatened your life. I don't remember.

Everybody likes to think he/she is the good guy and that when he/she kills it is justified and in the name of good.

It is faulty morals.

It is why we have wars.

There are alternative solutions to conflict and to crime than guns and killing.

Guns are not evil. Murder is wrong. Killing is nit evil.

If you refer to euthanasia - I agree.

Like I said - evil is energy that inhabits things/people( that are willing vessels) lying in wait to be activated.

Guns is one such thing.

I understand the intended satire in the cartoon...but satire/irony/sarcasm is often understood by few, many take it seriously....thus satire can often backfire.

It is why, I wish I were fluent in German to be able to proper read Nietcshe....I believe he is well misinterpreted.

Ah, Friedrich Nietzsche. A wise man.

Crazy but wise.

I love these people who advocate taking guns away from law-abiding citizens who use them for self-defense. The criminals will still have the guns if you pass these proposed laws. Do you think the bad guys who want to rape and kill your families will seek a permit for their gun?

Shouldn't a 90 lb woman be able to walk at night to her home without fear of being attacked? What chance does she have against even one guy? You want to take her gun away?

Try taking the guns away from the US Navy SEAL heroes who killed UBL, you cowards.

Hey, let's outlaw knives as well. Geniuses.

Thank God three states just passed a bill allowing people to buy a weapon and carry it concealed without needing a permit first. Am I the only one who read about that? When your wife and daughter are raped and killed don't change your mind.

And for those of your in countries who insult US gun laws -- you rely on us for your protection. Hypocrites.

What was it Homer Simpson said when he was told that he had to fill in some form before he could get that gun? "But I'm angry NOW!"

The only real gun laws proposed in the US are for restricting the sale of assult type rifles, and changing the loopholes for selling guns at gun shows without resistration. Rational people can debate the merits of those laws. No one in power has proposed taking away guns.

Unfortunately there is little that is rational about gun discussion. Quoting bible verse is a prime example.
