See the above story. I've seen guys with as much or more experience as me miss completely at well under 30m under stressful firing conditions. A gun is just a tool and like all tools they're only as effective as the person using it.
Not many trained knife fighters around either so your point is irrelevant. What is relevant is that it is much easier to kill someone with a gun than with a knife or blunt object. You have a much higher chance of survival if attacked with a knife. It is also possible to train with empty hand defense against knife attack to increase survival odds, the only way you are going to even things up if someone has a gun is to be armed yourself. Its why the US has it so wrong, escalation will never solve violence issues. The problem is, firearm ownership in the US has been so cleverly manipulated by interest groups and corporations over the years that is is irrevocably tied to masculinity issues in your society. Most of the time the first response I get from Amercians when I state my anti gun position is a comment on my nmanhood.

Way to miss the smacking point, guy. I was talking about accuracy, and it really does take training and consistant practice to be able to hit anything with a gun. I guess you were to busy building you idiotic kife strawman to notice what was actually being dicussed.

So what you're trying to say is you come off as an idiot, prople call you names, and instead of trying to not be an idiot you instead choose to reinforce your idiothood by interrupting ongoibg discussions with strawmanding dipshittery and whining about the size of your manhood. Gotcha, now kindly disappear up your own ass so the rest of us can go back to discussing the topic.
