More often it leads to children getting shot to shooting someone or a overzealous homeowner goes and shoots a trespasser. They save lives occasionally, but facts are more innocent lives are taken by gun ownership.

And how often to children kill each other? That's an extremely misinformed argument! I chose the constitutional right, because there wasn't an option for "All of the Pro-Gun choices above".

I have heard a hundred arguments that say guns save lives, and a hundred arguments that say guns don't save lives. In the end, a gun is meant for harm. So I chose ban gun ownership.

Click to expand... Im not interested in proving it because i know im right. If you think im wrong why dont YOU find some legit information proving me wrong. And besides looking at facts when can ONLY show gun ownership taking lives. In the case in saving lives we are not without a doubt proven that the trespassers/burglars in all cases are intent on killing. Just beileve it that most gun owners do take it out of hand. And if they have kids accidents can AND frequently do happen.
