    We need to widely allow handguns because of all the progress that’s constantly made from assassinating politicians with handguns?

    Please do list all the politicians assassinated by handguns and how much progress that made. I’ll follow with a list of activists murdered by handguns.

    Let’s see whose is longer.

      That’s the thing about guns. They’re evil until they’re necessary. But then they’re essential.

      We still aren’t at the point where we need to start using them en masse, but we’ve never been closer as a nation, and it’s absolutely time to start learning how to use them.
