Re: Rangel: Millions of kids being shot down by assault weap

Now some will say, "But if it saves one life......" That is the absolute worst argument. My counter is, "Well then we should ban all people from having private swimming pools in their backyards, we should not allow people to drive cars that go faster than 80 mph, we should ban people from drinking sodas larger than 16 ounces (ohh wait......)
If someone wants to argue about "saves one life", then the argument has to include the number of lives saved by defensive gun use. The 800,00 to 2,500,000 (depending on source) cases per year where a law-abiding citizen stops a violent crime because the citizen is armed far outweigh the number of murders.
