People with guns kill people. Somehow can’t seem to keep the guns out of that equation.

There are, naturally, media parrotings from idiots along the standard goofy NRA lines that involve such childish logical constructions. “Guns are just tools. It’s how you use them”. Yes, because every single tool I own can put a hole in a living thing, and that is there sole purpose. On the other hand, I do drill holes in wood, turn off lights, and open beer cans with my gun, so…

Another would be “More people are killed by automobiles than guns. Maybe we should outlaw automobiles”. Or maybe we should just throw up our hands and let anyone drive an automobile without restrictions and with no restraints regarding intoxication/aptitude/expertise/intelligence/sanity. Road war would certainly rationalize my road rage.
