The democrats are fine with it because the cartels are multicultural and that's woke. For the rest of the country, fentanyl has pretty much destroyed civilization as we knew it.
by the transitive property of good guys w/a gun, good guys don't shoot fentanyl, ergo only bad guys die of fentanyl.
But I was told right here on this forum inanimate objects can’t be blamed and the only way to stop bad guys is to give the good guys the same inanimate objects. What am I missing here?
You’re right. The idea that a good guy with an inanimate object is what will stop a bad guy with an inanimate object is lame! That’s the point. It’s a mockery.
You're talking about gun owners, I'm talking about concealed carry holders, and in the context of school teachers carrying. Teachers carrying aren't going to be selling firearms illegally on campus.
The odds of my house being hit by lightning are absurdly high as well, as are a host of other things in this life that we still take precautions for (I have a zap cap installed) because the precaution is relatively easy to implement. Risk is evaluated thus: 1. High Impact and High/Medium Probability - This is the type of risk you'll want to mitigate at just about any cost. 2. High Impact but Low Probability - This is the type of risk you'll want to mitigate depending on the cost. Home Owner's insurance is a play in this arena. If the house burns down, its catastrophic. But the probability that this will happen is low. Still, we buy home owners insurance. Its also where gun ownership falls. Its relatively easy to protect oneself, and the only reason to not do it is because you don't like or believe in guns. Your choice, but you don't get to tell me what to do to mitigate my personal risk, even if you want to. 3. Low Impact, but high probability - This is risk each individual determines whether it makes sense to insure or protect against based on their own personal pain tolerance for loss. Pet insurance maybe, or extending one's dishwasher warranty. 4. Low impact, low probability - most of the time this risk is not mitigated, because cost outweighs benefit. But, you already knew all of this because you're a smart guy. You're just pushing a narrative.
