| The Ghost of RubangB said: If a drunk sociopath was coming at you with a knife, you could run. Guns are designed for drunk people to just point and click and kill. They don't even need to have good aim, 'cuz they can just wiggle it around and keep clicking over and over until you're dead. Guns give drunk sociopaths a huge advantage that they shouldn't have. |
If the advantage is the problem then we should arm the populace more, yes? That way they don't have an advantage over the sober person. The sober person would have better aim, and thus the advantage. That argument doesn't really work out to well does it? You probably want to rephrase your point.
I removed all the parts that have nothing to do with this story. The father and child were within arms reach of each other. There was no need to throw a knife. He could have just stabbed.
@Final-fan
Being just as deadly is contigent on them being in the same relative positions. If he was willing to get that close to a gun, then he would be willing to get that close to a knife certainly.
