If people intend to kill, do you want to give them an easier method to do it?

Agreed, most of those people would be dead, had they been shot, instead of stabbed.

Someone can also shoot you in the back from 50 yards away. At least if they have to walk up to you, you have a chance to hear them coming.

If they were using guns there would be a lot more dead.

So yes.

Yea and anyone who thinks this is delusional. Most bullets used in crimes are full metal jackets, so you'll have an entry point and possibly an exit point. There was that story just the other day about the woman at Taco Bell getting upset a white man told her to zip it, that she walked past him and cut his throat ear to adam's apple almost hitting his jugular. Getting stabbed isn't the issue, it's what they do with that knife after it's in you that makes all the difference.

I think the most "Proudclad" thing is that the guy has admitted he basically knows nothing about firearms but still goes full Proudclad trying to argue about them.

Stabbing is easier to do.


No it's not. Guns were literally invented for the purpose of "any idiot can pull a trigger." Stabbing someone is much harder because you have to actually go up to them to do it. You have to have the balls to, most likely, look them in the eyes and stab them. Most people are pussies. They can't do that. Actual psychological tests have been done before to determine this. People are far more likely to shoot someone from even ten feet away then they are to stab someone up close.

Not to me tion the fact that it's far far far more likely you will survive a stabbing. When Sandy Hook happened 20 kids were shot to death. That same week in China some nut went into an elementary school and stabbed 20 kids. All 20 survived. If that doesn't tell you which is more dangerous then I don't know what will.

Disclaimer: I don't think guns should be banned in America.

How many mass stabbings happened in the UK in the last few years? How many stabbings ended in death? How many people are suiciding by knife?

Knives are second only to katanas and straight swords.

Also, with a knife you run faster.

One stab and you die from a knife.

Gun takes like a whole clip to kill you.

There's 300 million guns in the United States, and five times as many people are stabbed to death as are shot to death with rifles.
