“But I have a problem with your new analogy”
Yes I have problems with it too.
It i s far from perfect. There are other examples (none of which are perfect) I have a high alcohol tolerance. I drive better with BAC of 0.2% than most people do without alcohol. Yet I can’t if my BAC is above 0.08% (what an arbitrary number!) I get arrested. Just an innocent otherwise law abiding citizen deprived of my right to drink what I want. and dont get me started on me passively having an open drink in my car. I love airing out the tannins of my wine on my drive home, yet even if I dnt drink I get arrested. Al lbecause of crimes committed by OTHER drunk drivers.
The point is and it seems you agree with most of this:
There is a shooting problem in this country
There has to be a way to improve
The second amendment is not absolute
sometimes we have to give up things we may enjoy for the betterment/safety of society.
(I dont know exactly what needs to be given up, buying guns at young age? buying without a license? Buying without a background check)
