Just do away with schools and force home schooling for starters. Or charge a few 100 a monthfor kids to go to school. Why should i a tax payer have to pay for crappy schools when i don't have or even wanted kids? These kids just learn sex, drugs and rap anyways.

Because people paid for the schools you attended when you were a kid.

Taking your course of action would make for a lot of empty big box stores.

You might want to start with Ivanka's clothing line as well as Trump ties and other crap he has sold over the years. If everything was to be made here you would complain about how expensive everything is. Thanks Obama its your fault

Hear the same thing about knives.

Take a course in logic already.
Why don't you rub two of your brain cells together and explain to me how it's "dumb" and "impractical" to compare alcohol to guns. The way I see it, guns have more uses than alcohol, and alcohol causes more deaths. So logically, it should be easier to ban alcohol.

But ofc, you're just scared of guns.

Why don't you explain to everyone what you would do in a situation where you are outside of a building with your 45 concealed. You hear the firing of a semi-automatic gun inside the building. You see people running out of the building some screaming. What would you do? Would you be scared?

I wouldn't do anything. I wouldn't pass any new laws. Despite how much the media focuses on mass shootings, and that there is a slow increase in them - they're rare.

I also wouldn't ban alcohol even though alcohol kills more innocent people through drunk drivers. I keep raising this analogy so you guys can see that for every misuse of a product - we don't need to ban it as a solution!

We can ban alcohol. It will yield (gradually) to deaths by alcohol approaching 0 if we enforce it. But to what end? Do we want to live in a society that bans alcohol?

I don't. I also I don't want to live in a society that bans firearms or a certain class of firearms.
