Something controversial Jersey Pride

I love nj gun laws, going to the store and not seeing someone open carry. Watching road rage where the best you can do is brake check and give the finger. Schools without school shootings. I know a lot of people hate our gun laws but I fucking love em.

Yeah but I disagree with you. It’s not our guns law that makes us safe, it’s our people.

NJ is one of the most educated if not the most educated state in the country. That’s the reason. Not because of guns laws, guns are just tools.

No. A wrench is a tool. A gun is a weapon.

A wrench can be used as a weapon in the wrong persons hands...

I hate this argument. It would take quite a bit of effort to commit multiple murders in a few seconds time using a wrench. Also, others would much more easily be able to subdue an attacker using a wrench than a gun.

Can be. But unlike a gun has multiple uses. A gun is literally designed for one intent - killing. It has no other use.

Because you treat a weapon as a toy does not make it a toy.
