Yes, and?

Ok, so we both agree. So the issue should not be about danger, but attitude about that danger and ignoring the danger.

ATTITUDE, is the issue. Yes, there are dangers in life. But humans far too often have selection bias and sample rate error, on top of fear of being wrong.

If JFK depended on the "no rules" mindset of the NRA as a blueprint for the Apollo program, America would not have been the first to the moon. The Apollo 13 team would have died. 

Even with aviation and space flight, there is no comparison between the accidents in space travel vs the amount of daily firearm deaths every day. 

Sully would not have successfully landed the plane on the Hudson, if he had the bullshit attitude of MTG or Laura Boebert.

Yes, we agree. I was attempting to give you a lesson on the value of brevity.
