Bad gyus are the reason the good guys have guns.

Gyus? Oh well, he's from Maine...

The point is well taken, though. Everytime you point out that the slogan, "If guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns" is perfect, simple, truth, someone says, "Yes, but look at the rednecks who have it on their bumpers! Those people didn't even go to college! How can they possibly be right?" They appear to think that that shows it's not so.

Actually, it's even worse than that. As Edward Abbey pointed out, if guns are outlawed, only outlaws and the government will have guns. We'll get it from both sides!
