About
"Guns don't kill people, people kill people!" is an argument in a box against gun regulation, often used on bumper-stickers and other advertising venues.
Interpretation
The implied argument is that preventing gun violence is best done by changing human behavior, not by preventing people from owning guns – and that therefore gun regulation is a bad idea.
Rebuttals
- This is why we are trying to regulate humans, not guns.
- Guns don't kill people by themselves.
- People without guns don't kill people nearly as easily.
- Guns don't kill people; people with guns kill people.
- "If guns don't kill people, then why do we give people guns when they go to war? Why not just send the people?" -- attributed to Ozzy Osbourne
