Not always. It can be the fault of the shooter in circumstances where the shooter is of the wrong political or social persuasion and the person shot is a member of a "victim" class. This is most clearly seen in the UK, where, for example, if a farmer shoots a couple of thugs who have broken into his home in the middle of the night and threaten his family, it is the farmer's fault and he goes to prison. The thugs are excused by virtue of the official status as "victims." If the thugs go to prison at all, they will serve much less time than the farmer. Now, if the thugs used a gun to kill the farmer and his wife, it would be the gun's fault, and the system would need to show leniency.AndyC wrote:Well, yes - using their logic, it's always the gun's faultJJVP wrote:Out of control guns????
