IMHO, that just about sums up the whole shebang of emotional rhetoric
and attempted demonizing that substitutes for reason/debate/evidence in
both the fanatically anti-gun, AND just as fanatic pro-gun, crowds.

After all, someday they might have had guns, right?

And anyway, all you have to do is claim that you thought
that they had or used to have guns too, right?
