It is funny in an article about the difficulties of finding safer ways of handling guns, it is attacked in the comments for trying to talk about gun safety. You can not just say guns are only unsafe in unsafe hands but not allow research and regulation in to gun safety to figure out why. Cars benefited from research and regulation and guns can too.
I haven't read the article and am not interested in attacking the article. Some of us don't believe that others (not all) are arguing in good faith. I don't believe we'll stop talking about firearms till firearms are illegal to own. For example; I believe that if firearm related suicide was reduced to zero we'd still be arguing about firearm safety.
I'm all for increasing the amount of data we gather and research we do in relation to firearms. I'm all for making intelligent decisions based on the data we gather. From where I'm sitting we don't make decisions based on the data we have (on either side).
This largely feels like bizarro abortion argument where both sides of the abortion argument are now arguing the exact opposite when it comes to firearms.
