A sad gun nut reality

[Nuclear Unicorn]

37. It looks like it's a staged photo, so that leads me to believe the "idiot" is

an anti-rights activists who staged the photo for propaganda purposes.

It is also a fact that kids who grow up in households with guns are a good deal more likely to die by a gun. But then again, gun nuts have an utter disdain for facts.

On edit: The real hypocrisy is idiotic gun nuts who insist they're trying to protect children. You want to protect a kid from guns? Don't have a fucking gun in your house.

Are there any of "things" that are just as deadly if not more so that you might not be telling us or are you asserting guns are the #1 killer of children? Last I heard underage drinking kills 4700 minors annually. That's the equivalent of 4.5 Sandy Hook tragedies PER WEEK. Yet, oddly, no one is rending their garments over the fact that having alcohol in a house makes children more likely to use alcohol. Alcohol -- unlike self-defense -- is not a human right. It serves no utility. It has no practical place in society (I'm not advocating Prohibition, just noting the plain facts).

If actually saving lives was the true agenda then the facts you pretend to give heed to would speak for themselves.

Other facts being ignored:

* good people are preyed upon by criminals every day and they have a right to defend themselves
* the overwhleming majority of gun crimes are perpetrated by repeat offenders
* the police cannot prevent crime, they can only respond to crimes already in commission
