People, not guns, are the problem

If you were to throw an assault rifle, two sniper rifles and 10 handguns into a lecture hall, how many people would they kill or injure?

None, because guns do not kill people. People kill people.

Why don't you take away cars because a deranged man crossed the center line in his car, killing himself and critically injuring an Arlington Heights police officer? Take away baseball bats because some psycho beat someone to death with it.

That argument will never hold water. Guns do not kill people. People kill people.
