The saving lives argument is a red herring.
If you were really intent on saving lives, you would be all over banning or restricting alcohol.
You are not.
If it is common sense to restrict one to save lives, it is common sense to restrict the other to achieve the same.
But alcohol isn't guns, so you have zero interest in saving those lives by reducing the freedoms of others.
Bogus argument is bogus.
/thread.
Actually I very seldom drink and would be fine with banning alcohol. But the topic is guns and that is a completely different discussion. Why your talking alcohol is a mystery to me. If anything it supports my argument.
I thought your focus was banning high capacity magazines as if that in itself would save lives.
Have you ever owned a weapon that uses magazines? Do you know how simple and fast it easy it is to drop one mag and insert another? So you ban 30 rounds magazines, I'd simply carry three ten round magazines and get the same effect.
So what exactly is the difference and how would it save lives?
