It is true that people use guns to kill people.
One must be a evil and unloving person to kill people.
Unfortunately America has A LOT of unloving people.
650,000+ registered sex offenders live in the United States of America.
3 to 5 times that amount have committed a sexual offense without
being arrested and convicted.
Therefore guns do not kill people.
Americans kill people.

Between the choices of 'do guns kill people or do people kill people' I think that its obvious that the bullets actually cause the wounds that leads to their death.

I wouldn't ask the question on what kills, I would look more towards the "why" part of the question. Personally, I will never understand why one would kill. In self defense, yes... but even then there are ways to overcome a situation without death being involved. It angers me beyond belief knowing that people saw what happened on Monday to all the poor victims yet nothing is really being done. Why is more of the appropriate wording for your questions. Why do people kill?, why do people sell items in which allow killing?, Why do we live in such hostile world? The "why" questions will continue... yet no one can ever give a truth answer on any of them.

My glock was recently convicted of massacring 20 people. It tried to plead insanity but the judge threw it out. Sentencing has not occured but odds are it would be decommissioned and melted down.

The answer to your question is simple but people don't have the brainpower to grasp it. If you stick your hand out in front of you with an imaginary gun in it and pull an imaginary trigger, will someone standing in front of you die? Put a gun into the equation and there it is. BINGO. A gun is the instrument used in which the person dies. Regardless of whether it takes a human to control it. Humans with guns equal a lot more deaths than humans without guns any fool must realise that.

to answer your question think about it like this, a gun can't kill anybody by itself a gun can't pull its own trigger, a gun can't aim itself, it takes a person to do those things so yes people kill people guns don't kill people

Guns help people kill people. . .people use guns to hurt people. . .people will always find a way to hurt others, but why facilitate violence in society by providing citizens with the opportunity to commit it with such a dangerous object?
Only the military, and to a certain extent, law enforcement should be the only group in society with guns. . .

Guns are just tools. People do the deed.

They say that "guns don't kill people, people kill people." Well I think the gun helps. If you just stood there and yelled BANG, I don't think you'd kill too many people.
