    That is just a statement - I am not saying anything about border security just comparing two topics.

    But if you wish to compare, ask how many lives will be saved on your roads if your border security was better as against how many lives would be saved if your gun control was better?

    No, I don't wish to compare completely unrelated topics that are used to make a nonsense argument. That's all you.
    I wanted to be a Monk, but I never got the chants.

    Where's the commonsense in an argument about Trump?

    I can play your game of "Apples & Oranges" too.

    In the year 2015, there were 13,286 people killed in the US by firearms and 26,819 people were injured. In comparison, for the same year, there were 38,300 people killed and 4.4 million injured on U.S. roads. Just think how much safer we would be in this country if we just banned cars and trucks.

    See? I used two totally different and unrelated topics to try and make a point. We call that a straw man argument.

    Why the world has difficulty understanding Americans.....



    And on Thursday, against the backdrop of calls for tighter gun restrictions from Democrats, some Republicans and several students at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, in Parkland, Florida — where a former student gunned down 17 people on Wednesday — Trump signaled again that his focus is on the mental state of shooters, not the weapons they use to commit their crimes.

    He didn't mention guns at all.

    Trump blames mental illness not guns but.....

    Article


    President Donald Trump quietly signed a bill into law Tuesday rolling back an Obama-era regulation that made it harder for people with mental illnesses to purchase a gun.
