Anti-gun activist stabbed to death
Posted on June 2, 2008
Prominent British anti-gun activist Pat Regan was found dead in her home, having been stabbed to death, allegedly by her grandson. This is just such a tragedy… why, if only she’d had some way of defending herself!!
The grandson of prominent anti-gun campaigner Pat Regan has been arrested on suspicion of stabbing her to death.
Mrs Regan, 53, was discovered at the property on Marlborough Grange in the Hyde Park area of Leeds on Sunday.
The mother-of-six started campaigning against gun crime when her son Danny was shot dead in 2002.
…
Mrs Regan set up a Leeds branch of Mothers Against Guns after her son Danny, 25, was shot at his home in Haydock, near St Helens, Merseyside in December 2002. His killer has not been found.
She had met government officials to discuss how to tackle the problems of guns and gang-related crime.
I thought that crime would disappear if guns were outlawed, though! Well, I guess this just goes to show us that what we really need to do is outlaw ALL weapons. Here’s a list to start us off:
And really, this is just a partial list. Feel free to add your own suggestions to possible weapons. There are so many things that people can use to murder people, that the only really and truly way to have a perfect, safe utopia is to outlaw anything that a bad guy can use as a weapon. I mean, it only makes sense, because if the government outlaws it, then everyone will immediately stop using it. Banning weapons means that all crime will come to a halt!!
Now, does anyone think that this logic makes any sense whatsoever?
No?
Then explain to me how banning guns makes sense, as it’s exactly the same thing.
I really don’t understand the logic behind “gun control”. Making guns illegal takes them out of the hands of law-abiding citizens… and leaves them in the hands of criminals, who won’t care about breaking the law. They’ll love it, having a world of defenseless victims at their mercy.
Take me for example, or this woman — a grandmother. Being unarmed means that you are always a potential victim, especially being a woman. No matter how much I may fight or struggle, a man will ultimately win in a battle of brute force. Having a gun means that I can fight back, defend myself, and keep myself safe. If this woman had possessed a gun, she could’ve shot the person who killed her and still be alive today. Now, this does not mean that owning a gun means that you’ll never be robbed or raped or murdered, but it does give you a much better chance at survival than if you were simply unarmed. And don’t anyone say that mace or pepper spray can do the same thing. It can’t, and that’s the stupidest comparison anyone could possibly make.
This woman’s death is an example of why law-abiding citizens need guns. Of course, I wouldn’t force anyone to own one, but I sure as hell won’t let them tell me I can’t have one, either. It’s not my problem if you can’t understand the benefits of being able to defend yourself if anyone ever attacks you, breaks into your house, or tries to hurt you somehow.
This is why (and this especially goes out to all you liberals out there) guns are a good thing. Guns are our friends. If you’re a gun owner, you have a very good chance of keeping senseless tragedies like this from happening.

What irony!
Walking-sticks and canes make great weapons.
I can’t believe you forgot hands… which I believe were the first tools used in murder.
Sticks and stones must be outlawed! Ban them! Only the government should have sticks and stones. Why, they’re capable of breaking bones!
And as far as calling people names, well, yes they can hurt. Which is why we’re imposing speech codes and codifying thought crimes. Welcome to the new liberal utopia.
Let’s not forget coat hangers, quite handy for a multitude of murders, especially unborn children.
A woman in my home town died of botulism from eating tomato soup from a can that was improperly sealed. Logically, we must ban soup of all variety.
Also, a teenager that was street racing ran his car into a bridge support and died upon impact. Bridges are obviously dangerous so outlawing them would make me sleep better at night.
And lastly, when I was off-roading with a Jeep club a girl on the trail stepped on a hornet’s nest and was repeatedly stung. She was allergic to Hornets so all that we could do was give her an antihistimine that someone had and rush her to a hospital 20 minutes away. She barely lived having nearly asphyxiated en route to the hospital. So PLEASE support my ban on BEES, WASPS, HORNETS, and YELLOJACKETS!!!! SAVE LIVES!!!
