Don't try and reason with them!
Sunday I was discussing the situation with somebody before church. As we talked I pointed out some other facts that included the number of dwi deaths in CT last year, and I referred to the stabbings in China last week. Someone who was politely eavesdropping blurted out that "knives have a practical purpose!"
My goal is to find more ways to tie these rebuttals to the fact that it is the action and not the tool in a way that they will listen. Actually that is my second goal. My first goal is to, with the help of God, not beat the shit out of every third person that stupidly repeats the anti's rants

Apparently violent response does not further our cause
