I did read it. I didn't see any debunking going on on your part; you're equating one very different kind of death with another.

I would be willing to agree that a gun ban is not going to necessarily lower crime rates.

Part of it is that i feel guns are a categorical evil, like all weapons.

 

Aren't you supposed to be a moral relativist?  Either way... I find this quote fun.

"Among the many misdeeds of the British rule in India, history will look upon the act of depriving a whole nation of arms, as the blackest."

 

 

 

Who said that?  Mahatma Gandhi.

Gandhi was an odd duck, belief-wise, and not just for saying that.

It's just Gahndi understood what i outlined above.

It's why he never wanted his doctrine of nonviolence to be forced on anybody... he knew that was a big way to in fact hold back nonviolence as a principal.
