    Logical fallacy. Me vomiting doesnt kill classrooms full of children. Also, how does owning a gun protect you? The studies have been done. People who own guns are far more likely to kill themselves and their family than they are to kill an attacker.

      I assumed you were familiar with concepts of analogies and models, my mistake.

      Also, how does owning a gun protect you?

      Is your imagination really that poor? I’m a trans woman so I want to protect myself from potential crazy neighbors that think I caused all their problems. I lived alone, I like to not be completely helpless against an invader.

      The studies have been done. People who own guns are far more likely to kill themselves and their family than they are to kill an attacker.

      Other people’s carelessness should not be a reason to take my rights to protect myself.

      Cars kill many people too should we ban those?
