"We are told that it’s not our guns ... that would be taken away, but those of the bad guys. But when those advocating bans don’t even understand the mechanics and basic terminology of guns, it doesn’t inspire confidence."https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/05/opinion/mom-gun-safety-intruder.html …
I don’t “hate freedom in real life.” I do cost-benefit analysis with everything. Not all tools are created equal, just like not all blockchains are created equal (I’m against ETH for many reasons), although from the POV of the casual observer it might appear they are the same.

My only stance with guns is this. I will not call 911 and wait for a man or women with a gun to come and stop the person trying to harm me or my family. When seconds count cops are minutes away. That’s all. Good day amigo

I can understand the desire to protect your home & there might be some sensible middle ground: ie, registration, background checks & bans on semi & fully-automatic weapons.

I look at control versus risk. The only thing you can give someone is information and the only thing you can control is your own behavior. If someone wants to murder they will murder regardless of means.

What you're not including is the scale of harm. Guns are specifically designed to harm, not to transport people. They are easy to carry & easy to get your hands on, so easier to "scale up" when violence escalates.
