No, I am not saying that.

No, I am not saying that.

No, I am not saying that.

> I mean do you think I am more likely to be the victim of violent crime if I DO own a gun?
It depends. I don't think it would make much of a difference.
> Like, if someone breaks into my house with the intent to rob me...THEN they discover that I happen to own a gun so they decide to kill me because I happen to own a gun?
That is a possibility. They might also simply decide to rob you of your weapon and leave you alone. Or they might decide to flee, and you might decide to kill them, making them the victim of violence.

"Hey Henry, I'm feeling like robbing some houses to get some cash"
"Nah, I'm not into that man...well..unless you want to agree that we will commit violent acts against anyone who lives in a house we find guns in...'cuz I'm really into doing voilence to people who own guns.."
"You mean your violence is targeted towards people who happen to own guns?"
"Yeah man, that's right...once I find someone who owns a gun I get the urge to kill 'em..I hope those politicians don't pass any more laws further restricting gun ownership...'cuz I mainly like targeting gun owners and if they outlaw guns I'm gonna give up my life of crime...it just won't be worth it anymore....."

Guns don't kill people, Cowards do.

"Hey Henry, I saw this dude at the practice range w/ some propa munitions. Followed the dude to his house. What say we go kick his ass and take his pistolas for the bank job? We should just wack him so there's no stolen property report."
Mostly, people that break in are after weapons. The weapons stolen from irresponsible gun owners are un-traceable to real criminals. If you do choose to own a weapon, you'd better be prepared to use it.

wow, your piece of dialogue that is constructed to sound fake really makes a deep point and I'm sure that all people who intend to commit violence think in that manner. You show brilliant insight into the criminal mind.

You make a compelling point yourself. Maybe we should outlaw 'the criminal mind' and 'criminal thoughts' while we're at it.
Here's a couple more thoughts for ya....
First gun control
...then total control
When vitamins are outlawed, only outlaws will have vitamins
Gun control isn't about guns its about CONTROL
Three step plan to save our children from killer pastry:
1. Regulate and register desserts
2. Sue the dessert industry for failing to prevent heart attacks
3. Ban desserts completely.

Yes, I see, vitamins are very dangerous. Just as dangerous as guns.
> Gun control isn't about guns its about CONTROL
yeah, it's about restricting people's ability to murder each other. You don't like that?

Guns are designed to kill.
