Semi is a broad-range weapon which excels in most regards, even hunting. And keep in mind that handguns are also used in warfare. Doctor Foxx posted... Zeus posted...Guns don't make you more likely to commit suicide. That's a fucking ridiculous claim. That's a correlation not a causation argument, and it's clearly being used for propaganda. More importantly, that argument is doubly fallacious considering that it doesn't seem to examine whether they already owned the gun or decided to go out and buy a gun to kill themselves. That's not even touching on the fact that gun ownership is generally highly concentrated so the total ownership for the state isn't a meaningful statistic. The idea that the authors are purporting -- that somebody sees a gun and thinks, "Oh, gee, that's a nice gun, I'm going to blow my brains out!" -- is completely wrong. --- (\/)(\/)|-| In Zeus We Trust: All Others Pay Cash ...
