    If guns were banned then knives probably would become more common. Its bad enough school’s are used as shooting ranges and yeah having a gun doesn’t always mean you’re safe. It just makes you the bigger target for the gunner.

      Yes. If guns were banned, then people would resort to preparing their meals with some other weapon like a knife.

      That would be a good thing though, wouldn’t it? (I’m not a knife merchant I swear.)

        I am not a knife merchant either, but do think people carrying knives is a good thing. Not asking everyone to carry a Bowie knife (the average person doesn’t need one that big normally), a pen knife is good enough.

      Stabbing someone is more risky than shooting someone. Better to ban guns to cause as much unconvince to murders as possible.
