Guns don't kill people; people kill people (idea) by Tem42

1st Claim: If Guns kill people, then we must get rid of guns.

2nd Claim: But guns don't kill people, people kill people. Therefore we do not have to get rid of guns.

Either we have justified killing people or strongly implied that we should get rid of people.

1. People kill people.
Problem:
Either
2. killing people is O.K.
Or
3. Killing people is Bad.
But if 3., then
4. People are bad, because they kill people
So,
5. We Should Get Rid of People.

Either way, I, as a person, am in trouble.
Couldn't we just blame the guns?
