So, since the new Harry Potter movie is coming out soon, some friends and I have been re-watching all the Harry Potter movies. As good as a majority of them are (the 3rd and 4th suck. Admit it.) watching them reminds me of a conversation a friend and I had some years back. All the problems with villains Harry faces could've easily been solved with a 12 gauge shotgun.

Think about it:

Professor Quirrell: Hmmmm, a thin guy with a parasitic head sharing his body. yep, blast him with some slugs. problem solved.

Basilisk: Giant snake? No problem. A few shots from his trusty 12 gauge woul've made that snake into a pile of mush. Although, stabbing it with a sword is pretty awesome.

Peter Pettigrew: 'nuff said.

Lord Voldemort: simply pump a few shells into his snake face and your problem is solved.

The above are just a few examples.

Remember: if gun violence hasn't solved all your problems, then you aren't using enough of it.
