Guns like all inanimate objects take someone, usually a human, to activate. I said it awhile back in another post and thread: "I have my gun sitting within easy reach at home at all times. It has yet to start shooting on its own".

Perspective please. Inanimate objects are not the cause, that would be humans.

How sad that things have come to this. Instead of getting rid of the guns

@hckynut @Drythe I respectfully 100% disagree with your perspective.

Another thread on trying to take firearms away from law abiding citizens. Never a thread on how Chicago had a very violent weekend again. Never a thread on how they can improve their lives by having to be held accountable, how they can improve their lives by having fathers in the home, by getting drugs off the streets, by having morals and many more points to a complex issue.

Wrong is still wrong just because you benefited from it.

Some like to believe that if every gun just suddenly disappeared the world's problems would be solved.

Someday, when scientists discover the center of the Universe....some people will be disappointed it is not them.

@Nancy Drew I am willing to discuss these things but didn't think we would be allowed to. I don't want to get banned.

Terrible goings on in Washington square park in NYC these nights. Killing people on the streets there are shootings going on and people not getting arrested or put in jail or being released. People don't want their kids to go to school with CRT ****** going on. They are pulling their kids out of school.

I don't know how you give morals to people that don't have them. Welfare should be a no no I believe. Quit having kids or buy pills. That should be a law.

Forbes is a media company, and like most, are not one I trust. I will stick with the Federal and State statistics I believe have no reason to try to sell any source of a story for a profit.

@NicksmomESQ

With which part of my perspective do you disagree? "The inanimate object part", or "it takes a human to activate any of them", in this case, specifically a gun?

As for guns, we have never owned any nor have my siblings and their families who live in different states than we do and one lives in a different country. We don't feel the need. If other people want to own them that's their business. Some people don't live in safe areas.,we,have never felt not safe. Thankfully.

Certain areas of our country refuse to even acknowledge these types of crimes. I am talking about those in a position to do something to do something about it.

Anyone that chooses to read the statistics that address, whom directly is killing whom, I would think would more thoroughly understand what is really happening.

I am not a parent, but I was a child, and I do recognize how important my mother made in the direction I decided to take in my life.

Many I grew up with in Public Housing Projects, without a father, took the other direction. How their lives went was pretty much what I expected. Crime/prison/crime/prison and death.

Children having children, and without a father in the home? Statistic are easy to find how a majority of those 1-2-3 generation to live in poverty and crime.

Guns have very little to do with the environment in which a child is raised in a conventional family upbringing. Too many missing dads in my book.
