About that last, your accusation appears equally true of yourself. Regardless, please focus on the topic, not the other participants.

Topic Reminder
The opening post says to assume, for the sake of discussion, that reducing the number of guns would reduce the number of gun deaths:

For the sake of argument on this thread, it is taken as given that fewer unregulated guns in the hands of fewer untrained people will result in fewer deaths (accidental and intentional), so the purpose is to achieve that end.

Those who reject that assumption must still accept it at least as a hypothetical to participate in this thread.
​
Those who wish to discuss the assumption itself and related issues should take it to the Gun Control Again thread.
