And of course my main point was the talking points about guns rarely seem to apply to other things. People who want abortions will just get them illegally if we take away the ability to get them legally. People who want guns will somehow not get them illegally if we take away all guns.
Or: more gun regulation is worth it if it even saves one life. A border wall is not worth it if it even saves one life.
In fairness, it is pretty f*cked up.
The comparison isn't entirely apples to apples with guns and abortions either. If a certain group wants there to be less unwanted pregnancies and so less abortions then you would think promoting use of contraceptives and giving them away for free, funding better sex education etc would be preferable. That doesn't seem to be the case. You'd think if someone was pro-life they wouldn't push women towards illegal abortions that are an even bigger risk to life.
It'd be interesting to see how many people and politicians on the left are saying to ban all guns compared to people and politicians on the right saying to ban all abortions. Both patently stupid positions.
