It was a gun free zone AND it is illegal to kill someone except in self defense. It is also illegal to drive people over in car, but it still happens. Should we ban cars?

Ban assault cars, Passat cars, and Renault cars.

Yea. No one wears a hat like in his picture anymore. He has to be a bot.
Is it possible Mennonet is 50% bots? If people find out about this, it's gonna ruin your share price, and Elon might retract his offer...

There are laws in Baltimore against owning dirt bikes. Yet hordes of gangsters own them, ride them illegally on city roads and in city parks, and use them to commit crimes.

Nope, nope. You're done. As a member of EOR & SNUG (Everybody Obliterating Renault & See Nobody Using German) we are committed to global community safety. We successfully ended Renaults invasion of the US in 1992, and are committed to rooting out Renaults in this great land wherever they are found (looking at you Chrysler).
And as our organization basks in our recent victory of killing the Passat https://www.motortrend.com/news/america ... nued-2023/ we sadly remember the people it killed. Yes, Passat slyly flaunted its "4 star safety rating", but you know what safety rating that it ignores? The grievous survival record of the pedestrians hit by Passats.
You see, WW2 was a direct result of the world not being big enough to safely contain these two companies, and consequently millions of Germans, French and Americans died. We are still dealing with their war mongering ways. Today, we see that once Renault successfully to start the Ukraine war, their mission in Russia was done, and they left the country. What happened exactly 24 months prior to the Russian invasion? Well, in February 2020, the Passat appeared in Russia, which Renault had claimed as it's territory. We cannot risk either one of these assault cars in our country.

As a PAPA (Pedestrians Against Passat Affliction) myself, I cannot support people using Passats even (or especially) for hunting. There has been to much bloodshed.

Is that your argument for not regulating guns? If a regulation is not 100% effective it is not worth doing?

Do you feel the same way about say…prohibitions on abortion? Some people will still get abortions even if they are banned. So we might as well not regulate abortions?

I have never said I am against any regulation of firearms, kitchen knives, billy clubs, baseball bats, etc.

I am simply saying let’s be realistic. Regulations don’t change much in the ground. Law abiding people obey laws, lawbreakers don’t.

Yes, I agree. The federal government should not since it is not part of the constitution. This should be regulated at the state level along with guns. I am glad we found something to agree on.

Owning a gun does not guarantee a death. Having an abortion does. There is a difference.
