If guns kill people than forks makes US fat lets ban tham too while we on it. More people die in car accidents than by gun shots why would we not ban them as well? Gun is the leas efficient way to kill a person if you dont belive do ur research.

So this comment prompted my response to you since it was building up with the mess you are posting. A murderer is a murderer. Once that person decides to kill him/herself or someone else a means will be found to carry out that goal. The gun is just the tool used to commit the act. If he didn't have a gun, he would have grabbed something else or strangled his g/f. It isn't less of a chance of him carrying out his goal. The problem with the hippie liberals in this country is that all they see is the small percentages that tdn broke down for you and not the whole, larger picture that states gun related deaths are nowhere near as large an issue that you and others think. You are a drone that just listens to the media and doesn't question 1. How many of these guns are legally purchased vs illegally purchased and 2. What is the ratio of hit and run deaths, stabbings, stranglings etc etc. Wake up... WWII is another example. The Japanese debated heavily about invading the US, but the assumption that every American owned a gun detered them from walking into a suicide mission. You are right, just because you own a gun doesn't mean you will ever use it for defense, but it is a deterant, just like a car alarm. Some people don't listen to the warning and still try to take your things or do harm to you.

As for Costas.... Idiot. As others stated, people want to watch football, not hear his bs banter.

Geez, I was done with this but ok.
Stupid postings like, "let's get rid of forks because they make you fat" or " let's get rid of cars because they have more death related accidents" makes me sad.
Ignorance at its best.
When you start insulting me for MY opinions makes you ignorant as well.
People in this world have different opinions in every subject and sometimes theres not a "correct" one.

I'm a drone that listens to the media????
O yeah, I'm sure the prime minister himself told you that they were thinking of invading the us.

Now to the subject, again another tragedy in Portland. Yeah I'm sure that guy would have grabbed a fork and started killing those people with it if he didn't had a gun.

...and yet you neglect to produce a valid responce to any key point I posted. I respect opinion, but you dodge the point with trash. Read some history about my Japan comment instead of being ignorant to reality and doing nothing but poking back with nonsense. I'm not insulting your opinion, I'm insulting that your opinions are dodgy at best. If you want to debate, put some weight to it instead of the "I know you are but what am I" responses.

Even if the Japanese were deterred by facing armed civilians, how is that relevant to our lives now? Is there really still a threat for invasion? Dont get me wrong, Im all for guns. But living in nyc, and being a VICTIM of the misuse of just one, Im all for heavier regulation of them all.
