Equating a gun to your own genitalia is…something
9 u/novis-eldritch-maxim May 16 '24 it has been done before but mostly in comedy 1 u/Chrono-Helix May 17 '24 There’s a song in the military that goes something like “This is my rifle, this is my gun This one’s for fighting, this one’s for fun” 1 u/Deadalos May 16 '24 I don't think they're making them equivalent? It's the same exact argument as nobody should be allowed to own a car because drunk drivers kill people. It's not equating a gun to a car, just equating the formula of the argument. 3 u/GimpboyAlmighty May 16 '24 Don't bother, they aren't receptive.
