The Avalon anti-gun spouter is at again, blaming guns for the death of the Marines and sailor at the hand of a homegrown Jihadist. Yes, I agree that guns facilitate violence. They do not cause violence, nor inspire it. That is the product of human hate and immorality. Other homegrown U.S. Jihadists used kitchen appliances to carry out their mayhem, should we ban pressure cookers? Is anyone foolish enough to believe that if we banned firearms that anyone other than the law-abiding would surrender them? Legally-owned firearms in the hands of the righteous may some day be our only defense.
