oh come on, we are not going to get into conversations where people claim they can kill with two fingers, are we? If your two fingers rested against the triggers of two guns I would believe it, otherwise,,,
of course it is possible to beat someone to death, and most people are physically capable of doing so in some cases... we cannot ever pre-emptively stop all murder.
But right now in the states, and in parts of London, there are gangs walking around with guns, and when it goes down they use them... in the states right now, arguments turn violent and someone gets shot, if no one had a gun, they would get punched spark out...
We need to disarm people because, in general and on the whole, the general population is not universally capable of not using their weapons lethally.
People say "why should swords be illegal"... I ask, why should they be? What purpose does a sword serve a law abiding and peaceful person? if people want to display swords as ornaments, then we will produce fake plastic blades that look just the same for them to display, if people want to fence, we will them fibre glass rapiers to play the sport with... there is nothing you can use a sword for, that you cannot use an alternative for, other than hacking someone to bits.
