Some of the parallels that you guys draw are kind of funny. How is saying that you're more likely to be in a car accident than have your gun stolen (that is what he really said) equate to it being more likely to be in a car wreck on the way to the gun store than to every use the gun so you shouldn't buy a gun?
In point of fact every time you are on the road you have a chance of being in a car wreck and it requires zero ill intent of any other driver ... on the other hand the need arising for you to have to use your gun actually requires the specific ill intent of someone else.
What does ill intent have to do with anything? I don't care about someone with ill intent, I care about my or my loved ones actually getting hurt/killed. If someone with ill intent flips me off and keeps walking, that's certainly more preferable than someone without ill intent accidentally running my over with their car. I find it humorous that you knock someone else's argument and then put forth this statement.
