That's not satire. It's an attempt to impose an argument no one is making.

Yes, guns kill. Killing rapists is a good thing and guns are good at it.

Didn't read the CDC report that said that guns are used for self-defense often and effectively?

It's not diversion or misdirection to point out the fact the OP is a straw man.

The OP is claiming, through failed satire, that RKBA advocates would expand gun ownership

No, that is the goalpost. RKBA advocates have no desire to expand gun ownership rights to children.

The OP is about grabbers making a straw man argument that pro-RKBA want to arm children.

The 2nd doesn't restrict ownership to a militia. It's a "right of the people" just like the 4th.

Why wasn't that child trained in the proper use of firearms? There are already laws on the books

Personally I think at age 2, kids should get rocket launchers. But not marry or vote.
