The point is that guns don't hurt anything or anybody. It is the attitude of the people that does the harm.
Russia has lost a lot more of its religion than America. That's why Americans are much safer with guns that Russians are.
This is such a foolish philosophy. Guns do kill people, very easily. If you get in a fist fight, chances are any party will walk away with a few bruises or maybe a broken bone. If you get into a gun fight, someone is likely to die or have life changing injuries. I have seen far too many people lose their temper and easy access to a weapon like that will end up with serious consequences. Oh and as Vika pointed out - America is the home of gun massacres so don't get all preachy here.
