Debate: Should guns be banned in America?
Side: No, guns don't kill people.

NO!!!This great nation’s founding fathers adopted the 2nd Amendment in 1791, which protects the right of individuals to keep and bear arms in America: “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”I believe that once ultra liberal politicians and voters begin (actually they have already begun) to chip away and erode our inalienable constitutional rights, American as we currently know it, will quickly begin to implode within and eventually crumble. Just read history…its happened repeatedly since the dawn of civilization. If the 2nd amendment were to go away, then guess what, so then will the 1st amendment, 3rd amendment, 4 amendment, and so on. Starting to see a pattern here America?Guns are just inanimate objects, no different than a car, a knife, a hammer or a baseball bat (all of which can just as easily kill people BTW). Hmmm, so lets outlaw cars, knives, hammers and baseball bats too. Yea right. Do you see how utterly ridiculous and useless gun control is! So you see…guns don’t kill people…people kill people. Lets focus on fixing the root of America's core problems: the mental health crisis, stop letting prisoners out of prison, stronger parental control over their children playing violent video games and TV, fixing our broken judicial system, and the list goes on and on.Besides…even if all guns were confiscated by the government, tens of thousands of illegal guns will still be easily attainable via the black market and the cartels.

Side: No, guns don't kill people.

Idiots with guns: yes. Guns in general: no. If you don't keep your weapon secure around children, or give a machine gun to a kid to fire at your gun range( wtf?) or are deemed mentally unstable you should be deemed unworthy to carry a deadly firearm. Responsible people should own guns.
Debate: Should guns be banned in America?
Side: No, guns don't kill people.

The purpose of guns isn't to kill people. It's what people do with them, but it's not their purpose. Just like a kitchen knife isn't meant to cut things. It's meant to prepare food, as a gun is meant for protection. Also, mass shootings are a pretty recent phenomena and are relatively rare in the scope of gun violence. Guns save way more people than they endanger, it's just that mass shootings make for juicier stories than self-protection in a home invasion. Banning guns is essentially taking away our INALIENABLE right to protect ourselves. Criminals don't follow the law, so what makes you think a criminal wouldn't own a gun illegally in a ban. The only thing that happens is an imbalance of power has been made. Certain people, namely criminals and police, are now more powerful than the people in need of protection. As for "heavier" guns, I think that ownership of them comes with freedom. Anyone has the choice to own a fast car, but those kill more people than guns do, so why not ban them? Because it's ridiculous.

The purpose of guns isn't to kill people. It's what people do with them, but it's not their purpose. Just like a kitchen knife isn't meant to cut things. It's meant to prepare food, as a gun is meant for protection.I am against banning guns in America, but this argument does not make sense. The purpose of a gun is to fire a lethal projectile for the purposes of hunting or protection, and the purpose of a kitchen knife is to cut things for the purpose of food preparation.Guns save way more people than they endanger, it's just that mass shootings make for juicier stories than self-protection in a home invasion.That is very true. You'll get far more viewers from covering mass shootings than you will covering a story about how gun related crimes are at a historic low, and still decreasing.Banning guns is essentially taking away our INALIENABLE right to protect ourselves. Criminals don't follow the law, so what makes you think a criminal wouldn't own a gun illegally in a ban.It doesn't take away our inalienable right to protect ourselves, it just makes it harder. One could still protect themselves without a gun, though you'd have to try a lot harder. As for criminals, the fact that some people will break a law is generally not considered a good reason to avoid having said law all together.

Guns are security and safety tools. If you take them away there is less security.

...which is why in America, guns are used as a murder weapon twice as often as every other murder weapon combined.

That report shows clearly that it's people killing people, not guns. Look at Switzerland.And then there are lies, damn lies and statistics."... children are already pretty safe in schools as is. A very small number of the 30,000 annual gun deaths take place in schools." So where's the problem?

Can a gun get up, walk over to someone, and shoot them? No. It's the person behind the gun because think about it. For a war or conflict to be started, it needs to be started by someone who can declare war. Someone who can say, "this is war". Guns can make decisions, guns can't talk, guns can't move around on there own. For the people who think guns shouldn't be aloud I think live in a cartoon, a g rated cartoon.
Debate: Should guns be banned in America?
Side: No, guns don't kill people.

No Guns don't kill people, its the person who holds it that kills people.
Debate: Should guns be banned in America?
Side: Yes

As a tool, guns certainly kill people. Well, bullets do, rather, but that's nit picking. The person using the gun is indeed responsible, but when one uses a tool, that tool is certainly being used.So yes, the bullet fired by the gun is doing the killing. The person who holds it simply decides who is being killed. It's nonsense, but that's the nature of this whole "Guns don't kill people, people do" shtick that really has no legitimate place in a conversation about guns.
Debate: Should guns be banned in America?
Side: No, guns don't kill people.

Guns are useful, especially if a government would be susceptible to tyrannism, and I would put verification laws that would go survey and examine ones person mental health etc., Yes it has a legitimate place in the conversation about guns... Who uses the guns? People, and who's been doing terror attacks? People, reasons why these people do terror attacks? Depression and Illegal or unlicensed firearms and most of them have mental disabilities.
Debate: Should guns be banned in America?
Side: No, guns don't kill people.

Guns do not do the killing. It is a mere choice whether to partake in such a demeaning activity. You are the murderer, not the gun. In fact, weaponry can also be argued to be a manoeuver of self defence!Take that!
Debate: Should guns be banned in America?
Side: No, guns don't kill people.

Guns don't kill people. People kill people. Guns are items made by people to kill people.
Debate: Should guns be banned in America?
Side: No, guns don't kill people.

I don´t have a point to be making here. I am literally the period between the V.S. However I know that guns kill people, because if people did not have guns then less people would be killed. However a lot of people use guns for self defense and while I am not a huge supporter of it, hunting. So guns should be limited and harder to get.
Debate: Should guns be banned in America?
Side: No, guns don't kill people.

Guns can kill people yes but that doesn't mean everyone should have to pay for something suicidal phycopaths do. I have guns my grandpa knows how to make guns there is nothing wrong with having guns and anyone who blames everyone who has a gun is completely insane i dint care how many people i offend third is my opinion and if your offended by it then your just like my sister, hella lame and unable to take a insult so ya i would type more but i gt
Debate: Should guns be banned in America?
Side: No, guns don't kill people.

I don't think guns should be banned because they are such a strong part of american culture. Back in colonial times, everyone had a gun. America was still mostly a frontier at the time. It was partially because of this that the revolutionists were able to fight back against the army of the world's superpower, they all had weapons and knew how to use them. That gun culture remains in america today.The right to bear arms is also one of the constitutional amendments, so that almost ensures that guns will remain legal.On the other hand, I do think that restrictions should be tightened. As it is now, background checks and restrictions are way too loose. Every few weeks there is a new school shooting, and I have heard of so many gun deaths and accidents from people close to me. Yes, guns should stay legal, just more restricted.And for those of you who say "I can use it to protect myself from criminals", tell me. How many times has that EVER happened? I bet you can find a few examples somewhere on the internet. But the ratio of Gun Accidents to Guns Used in Self-Defense is very high.

People kill people not guns. People use guns out of their own free will.
Debate: Should guns be banned in America?
Side: No, guns don't kill people.

Obviously guns dont kill people. It is the people shooting the weapon. There are absolutely no reason not to use guns. If someone is attacking you, no one would tell me that they wouldn't want to protect themselves. If guns were to be banned people would find a way to use them and make them themselves. Why not just keep them legal. There is absoultley no reason not too. Tell me if you disagree why or why not please!!!
Debate: Should guns be banned in America?
Side: No, guns don't kill people.

Not everyone should have a gun. Some people have unstable personalities. However, everyone has a right to a gun. The 2nd amendment guarangees that in case no one else is there to defend you, you can defend yourself. Criminals will always find ways to break the law. Do you think they are going to abide by having their weapons confiscated?
Debate: Should guns be banned in America?
Side: No, guns don't kill people.

If your sister, daughter, or grandma was to be sexually assaulted by a bigger, stronger man a gun could save their life. Now you may think pepper spray or a taizzer to be the option, but many professional criminals can fight even after being sprayed, and were do you buy a taizzer anyway?
Debate: Should guns be banned in America?
Side: No, guns don't kill people.

In my opinion the right to be able to defend ourselves shall not be infringed upon. Should a better job be done with enforcing existing gun laws? Absolutely. Should there be a waiting period for a more extensive check? There should be.Should armed guards be present at schools? Why not, we protect inanimate objects with guns all over, our children are worth more than everything else. it's just my opinion and in the grand scheme of things majority rules. So we will see where we go next
Debate: Should guns be banned in America?
Side: No, guns don't kill people.

No. But like any other tool (especially deadly ones) they should be carefully regulated. There should be thorough competency checks before a gun is issued.

Just because a gun can be dangerous, doesn't mean no-one can have one. Countries with no guns have lower rates of gun crime - but that doesn't mean you can forcibly take a gun off of someone who owns one. What would end up happening would be that law-abiding people would hand in their guns, but there would still be people (including a lot of dangerous people, as well as people that just want a gun) who just don't hand in their guns. In the American Constitution, it states that: "the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." Changing the amendments can't (or rather shouldn't) be done. The amendments are there to ensure the freedom of the people - guns are allowed so people can protect their freedom from the government. If you were to just ignore the second amendment and ban guns completely, it would end up being a lot easier or seem more possible to change other amendments (for example freedom of speech). By all means, gun control laws could be increased, but it isn't a good idea to just ban guns completely.

Banning guns would just leave good people defenseless while criminals would still have their guns.

Side: No, guns don't kill people.

It is too late to ban guns in America. If this was attempted now, only the good guys would surrender their fire arms. Instead, what is required is more stringent mental health and background checks.

Side: No, guns don't kill people.

Weaponry will never stop evolving, so why ban them now;Only threats to society's lives ought to banned, and people responsible must be dealt with, till to an extant of removing them with very guns we think of banning.

The actual gun is not in any form responsible for the killing of other people, it is the person that is responsible for the damages caused by him/her.
Debate: Should guns be banned in America?
Side: Yes

The actual gun is not in any form responsible for the killing of other people, it is the person that is responsible for the damages caused by him/her.That is absolutely stupid. The damage can't be caused without the weapon so obviously the weapon plays a factor in the killing. You might as well try to convince us that the nuclear bomb is in no way responsible for the killing of 250,000 people at Hiroshima and Nagasaki.I am puzzled by how any person can even believe such ridiculous nonsense.
Debate: Should guns be banned in America?
Side: No, guns don't kill people.

Although I do understand what you are saying, a person was responsible for dropping the bomb. No weapon goes off without someone touching a trigger. If a gun were to lie on a table and shoot a wall in an empty room then I could see how "guns kill people". It is hard to explain my reasoning in words but it all comes down to this. A gun is a weapon controlled by a human being, it does not make its own choices so therefor it is not responsible.
Debate: Should guns be banned in America?
Side: No, guns don't kill people.

While I favor some restrictions on guns, I do believe that any form of protection or self defense for adults is a right. I am very moderate on guns.
Debate: Should guns be banned in America?
Side: No, guns don't kill people.

Guns do not kill people. People kill people. I am doing research on school shootings and my answer/solution is not to ban guns. If someone is going to commit a crime or create mass hysteria they will do so if they want to. They do not necessarily need to use a gun, they can use any form of weapon they need. If the intention is there, a person will do it.

I think that gun deaths are statistical minority of the about 30,000 gun deaths about 20,000 were suicides 30,000 people are injured by toilets every year and about the same amount of people die in motor cycle accidents additionally that was counting gang shootings and police shooting people also with the types of shootings a lot of people seem to think about pushing people away from guns could be dangerous in and of itself as they will resort to using more effective weapons like explosives.
Debate: Should guns be banned in America?
Side: Yes

I think that gun deaths are statistical minority of the about 30,000 gun deaths about 20,000 were suicidesPeople who commit suicide are still dead. I'm extremely confused why Americans think guns aren't a problem despite being confronted with evidence that 20,000 people per year use them to kill themselves. In 2019, there were 15,292 fatal shootings in the United States excluding suicides, so were you just planning to ignore those statistics?

People who commit suicide are still dead. I'm extremely confused why Americans think guns aren't a problem despite being confronted with evidence that 20,000 people per year use them to kill themselves.More than that many people used pills to off themselves. I know! Let's ban pills! You stupid little retard.
Debate: Should guns be banned in America?
Side: Yes

More than that many people used pills to off themselves.1) So what?2) No they didn't.The three most common methods of suicide among males and females during 2000–2018 were by firearm, suffocation, and poisoning. After remaining steady from 2000 to 2006, age-adjusted firearm suicide rates increased during 2006–2018 among males (from 10.3 to 12.6 per 100,000) and females (from 1.4 to 1.9). Suffocation suicide rates among males and females increased steadily during 2000–2018 (from 3.4 to 6.7 for males and from 0.7 to 1.9 for females). In contrast to the other suicide methods, poisoning suicide rates during 2000–2018 initially increased and then declined, from 2.3 in 2010 to 1.9 in 2018 among males and from 2.0 in 2015 to 1.7 in 2018 among females.https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/69/wr/mm6909a7.htm You're literally so stupid Bronto.

Debate: Should guns be banned in America?
Side: No, guns don't kill people.

Guns have always been legal but murder rates have only gotten this high very recently. And that's not just because of population growth. Clearly murder rates are going up for some other non-gun-related reason. I'd say it relates to mental health and lack of parenting and social interaction.

.guns are a waste of fuckingg time, ban them now!!!!!!!!!!!!

They are not a waste. I use them for hunting, an important pastime not only for food but for growing closer with my family for which it is a tradition. Also for personal protection, and marksmanship, a worthwhile hobby.

A very relevant point in today's society. It's not like hunting is the only way to get food anymore.

That's besides the point. Some people do live in areas where hunting for their food is essential.
Debate: Should guns be allowed on college campuses?
Side: Yes they should.

College students should be allowed to carry gun on school campuses. They are old enough to know what a gun is and how to use one. If someone were to come in and shoot through the place, what can they do if they don't have something to defend themselves with? For their own safety and for the safety of everyone else in the college, guns should be allowed on college campuses.
Debate: Should guns be allowed on college campuses?
Side: Yes they should.

Yes they should, its also a law anyway. If a person obtains an open-carry license he or she may bring that weapon anywhere public that he or she pleases. And that law applies to handguns, shotguns, and low caliber rifles such as a .243.
Debate: Should guns be allowed on college campuses?

Owning a firearm instantly increases your chances of being shot or involved in a shooting.Given this fact how can you justify owning a firearm at all?Let me guess, second amendment right, well you're just a genius lol

Owning a swimming pool is statistically a far greater risk to your house hold than a gun but without the benefit of potentially saving your life. How can anyone justify having a swimming pool? I suppose you think it's your right to own that kind of property?
