WHAT IS A GUN VICTIM

[tommyg]

IS IT some one who has fallen victim to a criminal act with a gun
or is it someone who has been deprived of their right of self defense

or a double victim who is attacked told by police you can't have a gun because it is illegal

By the way are you making this up I don't believe you really got robbed

please let me know what you think

My opinion of a gun victim: One without a gun...

[cheezit]

how3 can one be a victim of an inanimate object? is that even possible?

[suthdj]

only victim I see is the metal and plastic that went into making it :p

widow maker? falling rock? avalanche?

victim of a falling branch, victim of a rock slide, victim of a avalanche.

all inanimate objects remain inanimate until out side forces act on them...

the wind blows, a tree which falls onto a pile of boulders...

the wind blows, a tree which falls onto a heavy sonw covered hill sending a avalanche down the mountain side...

the weight of the snow becomes so heavy with the warming weather a avalanche ensues

the teetering boulder ......

i do see your point but "wind" is not inanimate, nor is the weather. wait a day or two the weather will change. wait long enugh a gun may change to fe02 but its still a gun, just rustyer.
i guess you could be beaten with a gun but that still would require an action from an antimated object

wind is inanimate, well, air is....

seriously... many an inanimate object has killed many a human over history....but then if the animate human had remained inanimate, then they might have lived far longer

I just posted a piece. In 2010 there were 30,000 gun related deaths. 30,000 "gun victems". Two thirds (20,000) were suicides. Therefore there were 20,000 gun victims. If we banned guns perhaps we would have had 20,000 "knife" victims or "sleeping pill" victims. Whatever.

they are not " gun victims" they used a tool. the person with the tool is at fault.

I agree but the ignorant public interpret this as gun victims.

No, rust is made up two compounds, Iron(3) Oxide-Hydroxide FeO(OH)·Fe(OH)3 and hydrated iron(3) oxides Fe2O3·nH2O
