You can't be a conservative Christian because Christ is a pacifist and conservatives are pro killing things.

Pro killing what?

Anything. Guns kill things. Pro gun = pro killing = not pacifist = not following Christ's word = not Christian.

Knives kill things but I assume you still allow people to have those

Using the UK as an example, no actually. Most people can't have them. this being the example set, Christianity is the dominant religion there as well, also proving my point.

It would only prove your point if knives were strictly illegal

In addition, the UK allows police officers to carry weapons to neutralize or kill if needed. So your point about weapons making a group of people pro killing would make the UK pro killing as well and so they would not be following your version of Christianity, contradicting your point

The UK police officers are trained completely differently. From the basics of only drawing weapons when its needed to advanced conflict resolution. UK cops rarely ever draw guns. It's not common practice like in the US. they do not live in a military state. My point stands.

I thought your point was that gun use is pro killing? So even if these cops are trained to rarely use the guns, they still participate in killing (not pacifist) and are not following Christianity by your logic.

Guns per capita has a subtle inverse correlation with homicide rates in the United States. The vast, vast majority of gun violence occurs in blue states.
