So.....about guns...... are you saying we're going to license, register, insure, have identifying marks that can be read from a distance, rigorously ticket the more minor misuses of, and regularly inspect firearms for full functionality as well as periodic written and ability tests and a battery of exams of legal knowledge and practical ability the first time they demonstrate they are responsible enough to own one? Further we will strip them of that license if they demonstrate they are irresponsible or have a substance abuse problem?
Great. We agree. Let's call it a day and go get a drink.
Uh oh. Sad trombone. That's not what this narrative is about, is it? It's JUST trying to compare the body count in a breathtakingly sophist false equivalency.
Well, how about this then: when a gun can take you to your job interview across town, get you to the airport in half the time as public transit, the big versions transport food around the country, and the VAST MAJORITY deaths that are caused are chiefly because of accidents (and are seldom actually the INTENDED OUTCOME), we can have a conversation about how this isn't the absolutely most disingenuous and obtuse narrative of false equivocation that God's green Earth ever did see.
And frankly, if we spent hours a day handling our guns around a bunch of other people handling theirs, there would be a lot more accidents.
Fucking grow up with this bullshit.
Bullshit Rating: I'm pretty sure a pile this big is not from a bull. It's from a dinosaur.
