A nut case (possibly a terrorist) has driven his rental van down a sidewalk in Toronto and mowed down a couple of dozen people. Ten of the victims have died so far. Following the antigun crowd logic rental vans need to be banned now so the streets will be safer. Couldn't possibly lock up nut cases as most of them just had a troubled up bringing and need more love.

Rental vans are not mentioned in the Constitution or Bill of Rights

Why do you even say these things?

That is not following the logic of the anti-gun people, it is providing a strawman argument of "anything that kills people needs to be banned" which is not their position.

It is demonstrating the absurdity of the gun-grabbers by being absurd. And it works.

Should we blame Ryder for this? Whoever made the van? Like the grabbers blame the NRA and gun makers.

The gun grabbers position is:

1. The gun did it!
2. We don't like guns so nobody should have them.
3. The NRA is at fault as well.
4. A law banning guns would have prevented things (never mind it is against the law to kill people, schools are gun-free zones, etc.)
5. The rights of law-abiding people do not matter, it is more important to ban guns.

Soon time to get on FB and make a petition to ban rental vans. I wonder how far it would go?

I totally agree
Take David Hogg.
No way does he support banning all guns
His father was in the FBI. He has lived with safe guns in his house his whole life.
The Parkland kids are not for banning all guns
That's NRA propaganda.

Where does this come from Petro?
Yes a few extremists want to ban but those are crazy people
My advice Petro. Don't listen to extremists on either side

it's the reductio-ad-absurdum argument. Or, as I call it, the last refuge of those who have no cogent argument to offer.

I blame the invention of the wheel.
Ban all wheels.
