I'm just saying that in that situation both sides having guns wouldn't have changed the outcome.
That's true. Only thing is it's opinion wether you think it would have made it worse or better.

Quote from Bonk
But I stand by my point that overall, more guns means more shots fired and more deaths.
That can be said about a lot of things. Cars for example. More cars means more roads which means more chance for vehicular deaths/accidents.

Did you save that picture I showed you on MSN the other day, Miniman? I can't find it anywhere.

Okay Miniman, the article that you gave me, was a blog. Not exactly what you would call fitting information.

Meanwhile here is that video that I was talking about. Note that this is an AMERICAN thing, they are using HMG's and what not

You can survive a mugging/bashing but a shooting is a lot harder to get through. Also the guy in your story would have got the gun legally.

As you can see, that's at a firing range. Not on the open streets where people can buy any gun they want at anytime like you made it sound like. Since you seem to like Ameriacn sources, watch this episode of Penn & Teller.

Parts 1, 2 & 3.

for srs.

and for all the people in this thread that think if everyone had a gun would stop criminals are amazingly fucking stupid.

QFT.

Really, as long as people have a background check, and have no criminal record when purchasing a gun, I see nothing wrong with allowing them to have a gun.

The police have guns, and they will probably never commit a crime.
