Another mass shooting.....

[Gawdzilla Sama]

Ah, the Slippery Slope fallacy.

Common sense, to me, says that if you are going to say "This needs to be stopped!  Mass murder is unacceptable!"  The goal is no guns.  There isn't a number of children that can be shot in a Sandy Hook scenario that is going to be okay.  If the guy in Vegas kills 5 people with a deer rifle, that's still a cause for outrage.   If the acceptable number of mass murders with guns is 0, you can't have guns around.  That would be my take if I were a humanist.  We need to get rid of the guns.  Feasibility would of course be an issue, but everything would be pushing towards as close to that end goal as possible. 

I'm not a humanist though.  I don't care either way.  Take all the guns.  Give everybody a free gun.  Whatever.  I'm uninvested on the issue.  That's probably why I don't have any problems with thinking things through from both sides.

Nice, but it's still a slippery slope fallacy.
