What I care about is immoral violence, regardless of the instrumentality.
It doesn't matter what the murder weapon is, the murder is wrong.
It doesn't matter what I defend myself with, the defense is good.
It's not violence we need to fight, but immoral violence.
The whole term has got to be made-up by the anti-gunners. Nobody talks about "hands and feet violence" but more people are killed by hands and feet than by ALL rifles.
ReplyDeleteI use it as a litmus test. If someone talks about gun violence I challenge them with that statement. If they start denying or saying "yes, but" you know it's just about them hating icky guns.
Well said.
ReplyDeleteI agree with both of you. People have been killing each other for a lot longer than guns have existed and in places where guns are banned, continue to do so.
