    I like how you ignore the fact you’re statistically less safe if you own a gun.

    No need to change the subject to ladders.

    The point is whatever perceived safety you get from your human killing device is negated by having the device itself.

      Oh he didn’t ignore it, he gave you some enthusiastic whataboutism concerning ladders.

      I am in fact incredibly careful around ladders, fwiw. And power tools. But those things have constructive applications, where the gun is by its nature destructive.
