Description This argument is one of the most pathetic arguments I always hear from gun-nuts whenever gun control pops up and/or whenever another mass shooting happens in this fucking country.

"GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE! PEOPLE KILL PEOPLE!"
...Why the fuck do you think guns were invented in the first place, numbnuts?

Firearms were invented to cause harm--regardless of whether it's harming animals or humans--because they were more effective at ranged damage than swords and do more damage than bows and arrows or cross-bows. I really don't think the ancient Chinese invented the fire lance just for show, since a short plain bamboo tube didn't look very appealing as decoration.

"B-BUT CARS AND KNIVES KILL PEOPLE!"
Everything can be used as a weapon, but that's not the fucking point. Cars and knives have other purposes to them that don't involve causing harm.

Name me what other purpose does any firearm have that isn't dangerous or causes harm. I'll wait.
Hunting, cap guns, and starting pistols don't count. Especially since you can still be injured or die from just the shock-wave from blanks or percussion bullets. Hunting is self-explanatory; you're still maiming or killing something.

...Can't think of anything? Then there you go. Case closed.

So you can go shove that "guns don't kill people" argument up your ass where it belongs because it's stupid and inaccurate af, according to logic and history.
