Where in the OP does it suggest eliminating gun laws?

Seriously, you have a short-circuit. Let me try to help you:

"Banning Guns to Eliminate Gun crime" would equate, based on your failed attempt at an analogy, to "Banning Cars to Eliminate Car Accidents", NOT 'getting rid of traffic laws'.

You see, and I hope you work this out: The OP addresses the notion of banning guns, not on 'getting rid of gun laws'. The clue that you might have picked up on was the fact that nowhere in the OP is there any such suggestion.

But it is just as typical of an anti-choicer to mischaracterize the position of a pro-choicer as being 'pro-abortion'. Funny how both on the extremes resort to that sort of tactic.
