I've heard the loons on this site get it wrong up and down this issue...they seem to think that despite the fact they don't know what they're talking about (and despite the fact that their ignorance is obvious to all)...we should still take them seriously when they say stupid things like "You shouldn't shoot at your rapist because you might hit an innocent bystander". Yes, we've heard that. I've heard it more than once. Apparently there are lots of innocent bystanders watching rapists commit rape.
Anyway..
1) Don’t Lecture Anyone On Gun Safety Until You Understand The Basic Rules
2) Guns Are Inanimate Objects
3) Modern Guns Do Not Accidentally “Go Off”
4) “Semi-Automatic” And “Automatic” Are Not Synonyms
5) “Clip” And “Magazine” Are Not Synonyms
6) Gun Safeties Can And Will Fail
7) So-Called “Smart Gun” Technology Is Not Reliable
8) Handing Someone A Badge Doesn’t Make Him A Good Shooter
9) The “AR” In “AR-15″ Doesn’t Stand For “Assault Rifle”
10) High Capacity Magazine Bans Are Completely Counterproductive
11) “Shoot To Wound” Is Absurd And Dangerous
12) Hollow Point Bullets Are Actually Safer Than Standard Full Metal Jacket Ammunition
13) Most Gun Owners Understand Gun Laws A Lot Better Than Gun Controllers Do
14) “Universal Background Checks” Are Already The Law In Many States
14 Things You Should Understand About Guns Before Writing About Them
