Sure it does, but remember that the snippet you quoted is a small part of this rather lengthy thread, in which I posted multiple times that the problem is not guns, but "violence." To look just at the snippet you quoted immediately above, I wrote:

We need to be prepared to explain why the gun grabbers' proposals won't (and can't) make any significant difference. And part of that argument is pointing out that guns don't just up and kill people all by themselves. Evil people use guns to commit evil acts. If they don't have access to guns (which they will, irrespective of background checks and gun bans), they'll just use other tools.
