Gun control: Japan has it right

147. That fallacious thinking doesn't work on a Liberal.

I've seen that type of thought process played out far too often. I love the vague phrases too - Responsibility - where have I seen that? I've been fighting this type of thought for decades. Don't get me wrong - I'm not implying that you are conservative at all. This type of argument works well against them because they defend their actions with this type of logic often and they are incapable of understanding the irony. Me - I'm a card carrying member of the ACLU and have been very active in defending a Woman's right to choose.

The good ole is just a small burden game -
It's just a requirement for a photo ID to vote - who doesn't have one? Aren't you a responsible citizen?
It's just a little vaginal probe inserted into your vagina to see your baby before you abort - you want to make a responsible choice right?
It's just a $1000 bond to get a protest permit. Don't you want to be responsible and ensure no one gets hurts? Oh, and you can't schedule it until 2 days after the conference.
etc.

The key theme - If it isn't worth the inconvenience, then don't do it.


I listed solid gun control measures in the previous two posts. Is your goal really about reducing deaths and gun violence? Or is it about going after a certain demographic, which just happens to include 30% of Democrats?
