Taking your reasoning to it's logical conclusion, you also believe that
we should abolish our entire system of laws, courts, prisons, etc.

I never suggested that. You have poor logic.


Nah !
It's just a dishonest tactic of setting up a ridiculous strawman, used by
hoplophobes to cover the fact that they can't admit they lost the argument


because all the criminals "ain't nothin'" compared to majority of
citizens who are law abiding. Sorry, a wrong behavior doesn't justify
(much less relate) to a bad policy that addresses a different behavior.

It doesn't matter if you're the dead victim of an inattentive driver using
a cell phone or a whackjob with a gun, you're still dead.

In fact, we all are many times more likely to be killed by a cell phone
texter than we are by a nutcake with a gun.

Hang up and drive!
