(911 posts)I expect the same from you.
If I really have to make it any more clear... Many, many more people die in automobiles every year than are killed by firearms. If the reason for your indignation truly is the deaths that you attribute to the device then the perceived reason for its invention should be mute. I've heard it so many times, "if it saves just one life..." Well, if that's REALLY the case then we need to be getting people out of cars, too, along with barring access to the host of other things that are instrumental in needless deaths. Swimming pools, baseball bats, kitchen knives, etc. Be honest... The only difference between guns and these other things - the reason you rail against one and not the others - is that you don't own or use a gun.
You have a visceral reaction to guns. You don't like them. Fine, I get it. Nobody here wants to make you own one. That's a fundamental difference between that "anti's" and the "pro's." We don't expect you to live by our values. Stop expecting us to live by yours.
