A Quote by Edward Abbey

Guns don't kill people; people kill people. Of course, people with guns kill more people. But that's only natural. It's hard. But it's fair.

I think the NRA, they got it half-right when they say, 'Guns don't kill people, people kill people.' I change it to, 'Guns don't kill people, Americans kill people.'

Michael Moore

I keep hearing this [expletive] thing that guns don't kill people, but people kill people. If that's the case, why do we give people guns when they go to war? Why not just send the people?

Ozzy Osbourne

The vast majority of gun owners don't kill, but people who do kill, tend to kill with guns, and often with illegal guns.

Alan Dershowitz

They say that 'Guns don't kill people, people kill people.' Well I think the gun helps. If you just stood there and yelled BANG, I don't think you'd kill too many people.

Eddie Izzard

Guns don’t kill people. Video games, the media and Barack Obama’s budget kill people.

Wayne LaPierre

More people use guns to kill themselves than to kill others.

Steven Petrow

Guns don't kill people, husbands who come home early from work kill people

Larry the Cable Guy

Guns don't kill people, people kill people, and monkeys do too (if they have a gun).

Eddie Izzard

The word 'hate' is a very carefully chosen word. There's got to be a real sense of revulsion and disgust. People are looking for someone to blame, someone who's the cause of their problems, and it should be the gun industry. These guys are the living embodiment of the slogan, 'Guns don't kill people-people kill people'. They're complete mercenaries.

Josh Sugarmann

I don't know why people carry guns. Guns kill people.

Michael Bloomberg

My belief is guns don't kill people, people kill people.

Pauly Shore

And the National Rifle Association says that, "Guns don't kill people, people do," but I think the gun helps, you know? I think it helps. I just think just standing there going, "Bang!" "That's not going to kill too many people, is it? You'd have to be really dodgy on the heart to have that.

Eddie Izzard

I'm not advocating for no guns. I like mine and am not about to give them up. But in this country, my uterus is more regulated than my guns. Birth control and reproductive health services are harder to get than bullets. What is that about? Guns don't kill people - vaginas do?

Shannyn Moore

The problem is not gun possession; the problem is manufacturing guns - who's making these guns and how they gettin' out on the street? There shouldn't even be guns for us to possess. If there wasn't any, then it wouldn't be a problem. So we need to go to the source of the problem. They're making all these wars so they can make more weapons and sell them, and they wanna kill more people - they need population control,'cause people have to die in order for this world to continue. That's the government's goal right now.
