Yes say public health experts, So do we, yet you don't seriously advocate banning cars, alcohol or tobacco. They are even promoting the sexual behavior that is most responsible for the spread of the AIDS virus. Find a better metaphor Why do conservatives always jump to black or white? Why is the world so binary for you folks? Banning cars? How about seat belts and air bags, lower speed limits and crash suppression on the highway, better driver education, smarter automobile technology to help prevent accidents? Promoting sexual behavior? No, accepting that it's some people's natural way of living. Again, why the black and white world? Too simple and you know it. Perhaps it is the black white attitude of the gun banners, as if banning anything has ever limited it's availability. I've never uttered a word about banning guns but every dweeb who calls themselves conservative in this group has tried to put those words in my mouth. It's a simple world for you folks. I get it. What is your solution to crimes committed while armed? |
