@neiltyson Thank you @neiltyson for injecting some logic into this ongoing issue. I've been saying for years that if people really want to save lives, the answer is to simply ban cars (not guns).
@weaverwashere@NYGovCuomo Guns serve a purpose: Protection from those who would do us harm, be they individuals or governments. And in case this bit of logic has escaped you: PEOPLE kill, and they kill with any tool available. Guns are just a more "scary" tool than a car, truck, or knife.
