I used to think we would evolve out of it but I have become cynical in my old age.

With guns, knives, beat to death, poison.

It's sad, but I don't think murder is ever going to magically stop.

People can kill more people with guns
Guns can be used in random crimes in public places


Other methods such as hammers, knives are rarely used in public.

Been doing so since humans first walked the earth and will continue to do so until humans no longer walk the earth.

by allowing them to have easy access to assault weapons and hand guns?

People with guns kill people much more easily then people people without guns...

the ' people kill people' argument is a ridiculous argument and a right wing/ gun nut talking point....

Using a gun makes it easier to kill someone? Thanks for pointing that out to me, I never would have guessed it.
You jump all over me just because I pointed out the people have been killing people since humans have been on earth? Why?
Dead is dead no matter what weapon is used, guns happen to make it easier.
