Now he wants to argue, "There are no bad guns, just bad people".
Ok, sure, there are greedy people who want to flood the market for profit despite that those products should not be in the hands of everyone. Just like tobacco marketed to kids and minorities and lied for decades about the health risks, and got caught and were fined and forced to stop that marketing.
Ok, there are also no bad nukes either. Just bad people with them, like Russia, and China. So just because humans make nukes anyone can have them? We should simply pump nukes out like candy and let anyone have them?
No bad guns? Right? Everyone needs an A-R15 even though the inventor said he never intended it for civilian use?
And it is a damned good thing Nader never said shit about the safety of cars, lucky us we still have cars without seat belts and air bags and gas still has lead in it.
I agree, objects are merely objects, but there are people who make and sell objects that are dangerous and can hurt people and should be regulated or improved to be less dangerous.
Remember the Tacata air bags? I am old enough to remember the Ford Pinto which had a bad muffler design and when in a crash it could pierce the gas tank.
This is absurd to claim that guns should not be regulated, if at the same time we also would want police and military to be trained to use them. Now please do not stupidly claim that the average civilian has the same constant level of training as a police officer or military member.
By your logic, if someone knows how to do CPR that qualifies them to crack open a chest and use scalpels. Guns are not toys and should not be made like toys or handed out like toys. If your goal is to keep them out of the wrong hands, and I agree, we should take more care on who gets them, and yes, even the designs and size for the people who want them.
