Honest question, why do you support gun control? [W:244]

Well, I can't tell you it's NOT cherishing the freedom to get shot walking down the street by a teenager who had the freedom to choose not to attend school because his parents were free to die from heroin overdoses.

that's one of the most idiotic arguments I have ever seen. My right to own a weapon has nothing to do with the irrational fears you complain about.

Is heroin illegal in society? Yes

Are the teenagers parents still using it? Yes

Has dRug abuse been on the rise in *high school along with dropouts? Yes

Will making guns illegal prevent that occurrence from happening?
 
What happens more, that? Or people losing their freedoms in the of "greater good"

Also you do not have the freedom or right to be free from having bad things happen to you.


its like saying cars have to be banned so his "freedom" not to worry about being hit in the crosswalk can remain intact

I suppose it's irrational if you live in a gated community with layers of insulation to protect you from real life.

I live in a gated community (with armed security guards too) and I fully support the rights of individuals to have guns and concealed carry as well.

I don't-that tends to be the status of rich gun banners.

and you don't have a right to go through life demanding others be restricted to cater to your irrational fears

No. It's saying that cars with razor sharp bumpers designed to slice people in half need to be restricted because if you hit people in the crosswalk they tend to sever pelvises.

Me, my wife and my son are the armed security on our country estate.

You mean like leftist tend to do? Not only with gated communities, but lies, falsehoods, and Political Correctness?

Really? You don't have the right to buy a new car that has a steering wheel ideally designed to pierce you in the chest in a collision.

Multiply that by a thousand other examples of things that makes your life better on a daily basis.

that's moronic and really silly. there is no legitimate reason for such a fictional device to exist

millions of people own guns legally and less than .1 percent will ever misuse the firearms they own

Why do they need to be restricted?

How many times has that happened?

Who sells bumpers like those?

What if the person is jaywalk?

I have owned guns for over 40 years. I have close to a million rounds fired out of firearms. I have loaded hundreds of thousands of rounds. and I am not all that rare when it comes to shooters Using your ianalogy, everyone like me should be dead from guns 100 times over

Products, and choices, not rules, laws, regulations, and edicts.

Who would pay money for such a thing? Plus to shoot a person for no inherent reason is a crime Just as running someone over with razor blades.

No bank or entrepreneurs would fund that in their right mind

You do have a right but even people with a 50 iq would prefer a car that would not occur in, as well as car companies would never do that because that's horrible liability... talk about law suit

Nope. That's not my analogy.
