Those who use the metric of “Gun Death” attempt to justify this form of death over all others because guns are “Designed to Kill”.
A man hacked six people to death with an ax in central China Wednesday, authorities said.
Of Course an Axe is made for chopping stuff like wood. Doesn’t make those people any less dead. Also, at least under my watch, none of my guns have killed either man nor beast. Doesn’t mean I’m misusing them.
Still when an anti-freedom type says guns are “Made Only to Kill”, I must ask: “What’s wrong with that?”
Wouldn’t you prefer one of these victims to have shot the attacker BEFORE he hacked all those people to death? Killing can not only be good, but VERY good. There is NO shame in the right kind of killing.
But being China, the Antis have already won there, so they had no recourse.
