Hippocrisy of the NRA Mentatlity

The NRA. It's most famous and prevailing arguement for the common Joe to own firearms is, "Guns don't kill people; people with guns kill people."

Using that logic, let's expand that attitude and mentality to an international scale. And let's make the guns bigger, stronger, and more destructive. Then you can say, "Weapons of mass destruction don't kill people; people with weapons of mass destruction kill people." Or "Nuclear weapons don't kill people; people with nuclear weapons kill people." Hey, in that case, Iran and South Korea have every right to start manufacturing nuclear arms. But oh no, in the interst of national security it would be best if no other countries, especially those, didn't have weapons of mass destruction/ nuclear arms.

Isn't it ironic though that the same people who are proponents of the NRA and have firearms themselves are the same people who support Bush's Unctuous War/ War on Terror?

So it's okay to have weapons, just as long as it's me and not you.
