Yes, that's exactly true...Same for cars...You know? Think of all the car related deaths there are...If there was no one behind the wheel there'd be no death...I refer to drink, drug and dangerous driving here, not general accidents. A human took the liberty to get drunk, high on drugs or drive like a manic...That's what results in the death...Same as guns...Someone pulls the trigger. It seems logic to me.
It seems like governments around the world are happy for criminals to have all the guns...Maybe because they fall under that category themselves mostly.
