A 3-year-old accidentally shot and killed their 1-year-old sibling Monday in Fallbrook after getting ahold of an unsecured handgun, San Diego County Sheriff’s Deputies said.
You can’t see a scenario where instead of a gun the kid had, he’s playing with a knife and cuts the 1 year old? Have you been around many kids that age?
But, please entertain me, if it was a knife, should we be trying to ban knives?
It’s a ‘hypothetical’ you keep bringing up in relation to something that actually happened.
Clearly - the point is that guns are a tool used by tens of millions of americans to mainly provide food and protection for their families.
Not unlike knives.
Just because you don’t use guns, doesn’t mean they aren’t useful or even pivotal in other peoples lives. I’m not a carpenter, but if there was someone getting killed with a hammer, I don’t call for hammers to be banned. It’s a tool used in other peoples livelihoods.
And I still never said anything about any bans. Were you going to acknowledge that?
You responded to me in a chain of comments about banning guns. If you didn’t want to talk about it, why’d you respond to it?
I responded to your repeated silly “hypothetical” about a thing you can’t demonstrate actually happens in response to something that actually has happened many times. If you don’t want to be criticized, don’t compare the reality to your imagination.
It is likely that the 3 y/o would not have killed the 1 y/o if a gun was not available.
Unless murder was on the mind.

I don’t ever remember my child playing with a knife, let along attacking another child with a knife. What kind of children are you around?
I’ve never seen a child shoot another kid, but that doesn’t mean it hasn’t happened, clearly. You’re doing a lot to avoid the question:
if it was a knife, should we be trying to ban knives?
Can you demonstrate that it has happened?
And I never said anything about banning anything.
Do you know what a hypothetical question is?
