Do cars kill people, or do people kill people?
As I drive about Houston, I see accident after accident on the streets. I have even seen some happen before me. So is it the cars that kill people or is it the people.
If it was the cars, then why are the cars not liable for the deaths?
So what makes guns any different? It is not the gun it self that kill a person.It doesn't just get up and shoot someone.
When cars are poorly operated by their operators, then they cause accidents.The same logic goes with guns.
On the side note, and as a chance to introduce who I am, I would like to point you can not convince people based on emotions and beliefs; however our laws are based on emotions and beliefs. Point in case, we believe it is wrong to take a life, therefore as a society we creates laws that state murder is wrong.
I believe the only way one can convince someone else that an idea is wrong is through philosophical deduction. One can say “God says it is wrong”, but for someone that does not believe in God, that means nothing to them.

It is not the emotive response that formed the law it was the logically defense of society to end violence that happened as a result of no arbitration.
ReplyDeleteLaw is a logical discourse to find facts during the trail process as a law professor is so fond of saying.
