- *compares the number of people killed by an exploding pressure cooker, with the number killed by guns* - znufrii Sep 16, 10:46 13
  - sure, because guns are easier to get than building a pressure cooker bomb - groiny Sep 16, 10:48 12
    - I'm not sure how you think that proves a point... -- nm - znufrii Sep 16, 10:51 7
      - if a crazy person wants to do bad shit, you think limiting his access to a gun is going to stop him? -- nm - groiny Sep 16, 10:53 6
        
        it's a completely different thing to go up to a person and stab them until they are dead and then go on to stab more people. -- nm - zork Sep 16, 10:56 2
        
        I think you and I should not discuss this topic at all. - groiny Sep 16, 10:58 1
        
        I admittedly screwed up -- nm - zork Sep 16, 11:00
        
        in some, if not many cases, definitely. - znufrii Sep 16, 10:55
        
        no. but it limits what he can do easily and quickly. -- nm - Andie Sep 16, 10:53 1
        
        I think very few one these incidents "happen quickly". nm -- nm - groiny Sep 16, 10:55
    - Your basic argument is "Americans are crazier than other people" -- nm - Roger More Sep 16, 10:49 3
      - I am not sure where the blame lies, but we are sure more inclined to do shit than most. -- nm - groiny Sep 16, 10:51 2
        
        i don't know if that's true. i don't think Americans are crazier than anyone else, i just think you make it easier to harm others. -- nm - Andie Sep 16, 10:52 1
        
        ^^^ and this is a Canadian saying this. -- nm - Roger More Sep 16, 10:54
