re: #216 HappyWarrior

I didn’t say guns were illegitimate but nearly all you bring up involves killing or the threat of killing. That’s different than a car or any of the other things I’ve seen said to be just as dangerous as guns. And you’re right they’re not proposing any of that which makes the hatred directed at them that more pathetic and unreasonable.

That can’t be said enough. A car, a baseball bat, a knife; their ability to cause damage or hurt someone is secondary to their intended purpose. A gun’s primary purpose is to cause damage.
