Baseball bats, screw drivers, chisels, tire irons and yes, automobiles
need to be banned. Perhaps after all the inanimate objects have been
controlled, boxing gloves should be required to be worn at all times
as fists are a dangerous weapon.

All those things were made for and have other uses. Guns have one use:
to kill or maim people and other animals. If you want boxing gloves,
you can't fire your gun.

How do you know about my gun? - a pump bb/pellet rifle. Next you'll
claim I kill or maim innocent pigeons while secretly removing my boxing
gloves!
