It's an irrelevant deflecting question in the context of a gun control discussion, no matter which side of the fence you're sitting on or if you're straddling the fence.
This was the question that prompted you to reply with the brilliant highly-original "what about abortion?" deflection, along with the context (in case you forgot or couldn't find it).
F.U.:
People have to use better judgment when dealing with mechanical objects. We cant blame the object, just the person and their stupidity is to blame.
As a child you were told, Don't run with scissors. But if you did and got hurt with them it was your stupidity, not the floor or the scissors fault.
HOTD response:
Are you comparing a child's judgment and decision-making skills to a trained police officer's, F.U.? That's what we were talking about.
If you've veered from the police-officer analogy and on to the general public: Are you really so programmed as to continue to suggest that a 4-year-old is responsible for a fatality caused when he/she gets a hold of a loaded firearm; that the death is a result of the child's stupidity, rather than the adult gun-owner's negligence?
Is there some reason you wanna change topics to abortion rather than answer the very direct and relevant question (highlighted in red, for your convenience) that I asked you during our gun control exchange, F.U.?
P.s. If you'd like to resurrect one of the birth control or abortion threads, I'll be happy to answer any questions you have about the opinions I've posted on those topics.
