Seriously. Blaming death on the weapon used is like saying it's the cars fault someone drove it while drunk.

Well most people own guns because of it. Protection, being cool, killing people, tell me when is a gun used for good?

If you wanna play with guns, join the army. You've got things to shoot at at the minute too.

Actually if I am going to join the army, I want to play with bigger things such as missiles! Don't like guns? No problem don't get one, don't like me having them then get over it.

My brother, a cop, killed a man with his gun who had stabbed his wife to death and was holding his 5 year old daughter hostage. Saved the girls life, without the guns she would more than likely have died. Fact is people will kill using what ever they can find, guns have no bearing on that.

So you blame the gun, the fact is and I don't mean to intrude on the feelings you had for your friend as I have lost 12 people that I went to High School with (I am 23) so I know how it feels but your friend could have used a knife, rope, car or a dozen other methods.

Ok. You have no idea what it's like to have a gun do you?
Ok, I had those guns given to me by my father, who is concerned about the gang activity in my neighborhood.
I accepted them.
Now how does that imply in any way that I like guns?
I own guns, but it doesn't mean that I like them.
They're for self defense.
And that is ALL.
Now just put a cap on your pride for how perfect your country is, and don't post unless you have something meaningful to say. You're just being demeaning, and you shouldn't be, because you really have no actual knowledge in the subject.
