How many deaths are necessary before something should be banned?

[LibertyKid]

The narrative: 30,000 people die due to guns, guns should be banned.
Drunk Driving kills 13,000. Does that number have to get to 30,000 before we ban alcohol again?
What about 2nd hand tobacco smoke. According to the CDC, 2nd hand tobacco smoke deaths is estimated at 41,000 deaths. Where is the political and social outcry to ban tobacco.

Well heck! If a gun was like smoking and you could get shot all day everyday for 40 years before it killed you, they would prolly stop crying about guns too. So come get my guns.

Well, drunks and smokers are guilty of actively killing themselves but guns are being used to kill the innocent.

First you have to ban the Bill of Rights. Are lefties planning an assault on the Constitution?

 

[Woodznutz]

Those problems are a big part of our economy.

What about an amendment? Have you not heard the term before?

They've been doing that for a long time. They simply have to act in the dark so that they can get around Americans who would not vote for them if they were honest to admit their goals

Meanwhile the gov't allows poisonous, unhealthy additives in our foods by people/corporations on board with the depopulation agenda.

What's the number of abortions performed annually in the US?

Missing the point, drunk drivers kill innocent people too. 2nd hand smoke, kills other people too. So what's the number before people get upset and angry?

Drunk drivers are well known to law enforcement long before they finally kill someone. It's a game they play (among many) at the expense of innocent lives.
