"It'll Save 2,000 Lives!"

One of the flimsiest claims by anti-gun fools is that a total gun ban would save “only” 2,000 lives. Anti-gun fools always quote that inflated number of 32,000 people killed by guns each year. Of course, what they don’t tell you is their “list” includes all the justified shootings by police officers, as well as suicides, plus all private citizens’ use of guns in self defense. Again, what they don’t tell you is that if somebody really wants to commit suicide and can’t get a gun, they’ll use something else. So making it harder to get a gun isn’t going to make much of a difference, there. Then there’s the fact—the unalterable fact-- that making laws against guns does not stop an evil-doer from getting his/her guns. All it does is force him/her into the ILLEGAL gun market, which is all around us. Where all CRIMINALS get their guns. And those who buy their guns illegally, or just STEAL them, never stand for a background check. Every one of their “common sense laws” against guns are USELESS in keeping guns out of the hands of those who shouldn’t have them. All they do is make it easier for the miscreants to victimize the law-abiding with their illegal guns, since the law-abiding DO obey laws, while the miscreants do NOT. (Gun Mart)
