Gun control is like trying to reduce drunk driving by making it tougher for sober people to own cars.

Gun control is like trying to reduce drunk driving by making it tougher for sober people to own cars.

If we're exchanging common sense slogans, I like quoting Peter Ventoklis: "Taking my gun away because I might shoot someone is like cutting my tongue out just because I might yell, 'FIRE!' in a crowded theatre." (Found in Claire Wolfe's "101 Things to do before the Revolution.")

Also relevant to DC's current gun ban is the Dakota Sioux saying "When you discover you're riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to disout." (Found it in Claire Wolfe's sequil "Don't Shoot the Bastards (Yet).")
