Thrust, Parry, Riposte, Touché!

18 June 2007
Living in California, I get to hear a lot of anti-gun opinions. It usually does no good to try to argue with facts, to point out the history of the RKBA or legal issues. But it sometimes works to make a witty comeback that sticks in their minds.

I found these on the web and just had to share them with our members.

Guns are only made to kill.
Sure makes 'em handy for self-defense, doesn't it?

Even if one child were saved, banning guns would be worth it.
Uh-huh. But wouldn't it also be true that if a gun saved a child's life, having guns would be worth it?

Only the military and police should have guns.
Tell that to someone who survived the "purges" by Stalin or Chairman Mao, or Cambodia's killing fields, or the Holocaust.

Guns cause crime.
The Earth is flat, the sun revolves around the Earth, blacks are inferior to whites... oh, we aren't discussing myths and falsehoods?

I don't believe in guns.
Apparently, neither did Nicole Simpson.

Why do you carry a gun?
Because it gets all scratched up if I drag it behind me.

I don't know why you need a gun.
Ever hear of someone being killed in a robbery? Well, there ya go!

Guns should be banned.
We tried banning booze once too, look how well that turned out.
