I'm curious as to what glaring pro-gun arguments you think Jeffries failed to cover in his opinion comedy bit, Six?
-He addressed the "criminals will still have guns" argument.
-He used Australia's lack of any mass murders since were guns were banned as proof, in his opinion, that banning guns drastically reduces the problem.
-He covered the "I need guns for protection" argument.
-He targeted the "second amendment to the Constitution is impenetrable" position.
-He took on the "we need guns to prevent government tyranny" cries.
-He addressed child gun deaths, suicide, gun safes...
Of course, he wasn't doing a dissertation during a stand-up gig, so he's not gonna start citing stats and stuff. But, he hit just about every pro-gun stance that I've seen tossed out in this thread.
In regards to gun safety PSAs, I've pointed them out to you a couple of times in this thread, but you keep saying they don't exist because you apparently haven't seen them.
Gun safety materials are available all over the internet, at gun shops, via free brochures and classes at schools and churches, via verbal guidance and printed materials at hospitals and doctors' offices, all over the media...
So, aside from a sticker or tag hanging off a gun like they do off hair dryers, what means do you suggest for PSAs? Do you think expensive tv and radio ads would help hammer home the importance of gun safety? If so, would you support those ads being paid-for by public funding/tax dollars?
