And you keep promising us that if there were just more guns we'd be safer. - goofy

-----------------

I didn't promise that and you know it. But your phrasing implies a falsehood that fewer guns would make us safer. I admit that literally zero guns would but we can't get there. If you naively say we can, then I ask, how is that war on drugs going?

Despite the recent tragic examples, the 50 millions or so or responsible law abiding gun owners are not the problem, and also not a problem. There are more people killed by criminals in a long weekend in Chicago by real criminals and all the tragic examples you cite. The problem is with crime and criminals, not law abiding gun owners
