When guns kill, its called murder.

When tobacco companies kill, its called profits.

Okay, I'm convinced. Let's ban handguns instead.

Given how few murders assault rifles are responsible for compared to handguns, this is one of the most intelligent statements from a gun control proponent that I've seen recently

Just let victims sue the manufacturers.

Absolutely. And then we can let people hurt in DWIs sue auto manufacturers. We can let them sue Budweiser, too. And drug manufacturers should totally be sued if someone ODs on painkillers!

Okay, but recognize the profit chain is more sacred to us than the people the bullets kill.

Profit? I don't make a penny off of anything firearms industry-related. To me, it is a fairness issue: punish the people committing the crimes, how about we...?

I love it when people are forced to see their own failed analogies in context.

I'd gladly give up handguns for MANPADs. Let's make a deal.
