The goal is (nearly) no guns. That's the actual endpoint. We've seen it all over the world. 'No guns' is not 'marrying a horse.' I am not going beyond the actual objective to some hypothetical nonsense which is what slippery slope fallacy is. The goal is not a maximum of 5 kids killed per mass shooting at an elementary school. It's 0 shootings at elementary schools. You achieve this through the removal of guns. It's obvious. Australia and the UK figured it out with little difficulty.
Currently, it's not feasible or politically expedient in the US. But that doesn't change the fact that is the objective for many, and that number is going to grow going forward.
Now if I said "What's next, we can't have cars because you can kill someone with them?" That would be a slippery slope fallacy.
