Its not a flawed analogy.

The reason people go on about gun laws isn't because they have the capacity to kill, its because of innocent deaths and accidents. Just like kids drowning in pools.

However, you teach kids to swim, they don't drown. You teach kids about guns and gun safety, they don't die or kill by accident.

The analogy is fine, its the crazy thought that removing the freedom to protect yourself, family, and property with a gun will actually making you safer that is flawed.

@bold. We haven't had that much of a problem here in Canada I'll tell you that.

Give people weapons, you'll need weapons to protect your family, guaranteed. So, what's the root cause of needing a gun, hatred, or more guns? I think the answer's pretty clear.
