47 Key Principles for Guns



Principle 1 - Guns are Dangerous


Guns are dangerous, to say the least.

Many people are killed by guns via accidents, suicide, murder, and war.

But people are killed by knives, drowning, cars, violence, falls, drugs, poison, and germs.

Guns in the home if stored properly can be safer than a knife laying around in the kitchen.
