Reply to comment by camelzigzag in We’re Washington Post journalists who spent the past months investigating how the AR-15 became a symbol of the gun control debate, political identity and mass shootings. Ask us anything. by washingtonpost

If you think that that is a good argument against gun control, do you similarly think that “Taking away nuclear weapons will only leave criminals with nuclear weapons” is a good argument against prohibiting individuals from owning nuclear weapons?

Edit: the amount of downvotes this has gotten compared to the complete lack of serious responses is quite telling.

Guns are magical. No laws can affect them, nothing can take them away, they're sent by Jesus.

I'll give you my nuclear bomb when you pry it from my cold, dead hands.
