Please please PLEASE: this question is made from a place of pure curiosity, with no political biases intended. I’m asking because restrictions and prohibitions puts a pressure on the market since the demand never ceases, and someone interested in supply for that demand will do it for massive profits - no matter what. Wouldn’t it be the case for any product, be it drugs, alcohol or guns?
The difference is scope; e.g., the ease of murdering people.
If you drop a container of oxytocin in your house, you won’t accidentally murder a child who lives next door.
If you drop a gun, there’s a chance you might.
Very true. If someone has a scope on their gun, they are serious about murder.
Only with the Sig P320 😅
As a P365 owner, it pains me to agree, lol. Those P320’s have a mind of their own.
You have the 9mm or the .380 (9mm short depending on where you live)?
My wife has the rainbow .380 which is pretty sick!
The P365 is my 9mm. I love shooting that little thing. It is surprisingly accurate for its small size, and it is so comfortable to carry with its thin frame.
Depends on where you drop the oxytocin, to be fair. Drop it near a playground and you might.
True. Added the modifier that was on my mind, but that I hadn’t explicitly said.
The majority of modern firearms are drop proof. I think a more realistic example would be a negligent discharge because the owner failed to empty the gun before cleaning it. (Both are negligence, you’re just not likely to have a dropped gun fire if it was made in the last 120 years or so)

Lump of cells is not a child.
If a lump of cells, moving, splitting, growing, etc, were found on Mars, you better believe it’d be “life on another planet”!
Just because it’s not an apples to apples “life” comparison doesn’t mean it’s not a life. Just like people who argue “I dIdN’t cOnsENt to bEiNg BoRn” BS argument; well, those fetuses also didn’t consent to being aborted.
However, nobody would claim a lump of cells on Mars was a human child.
They didn’t say it wasn’t life.
Don’t move the goalposts.
Bacteria in your gut is life, so when you take anti-biotics, you are a murderer by your own stupid logic.
Not exactly, Sherlock. I’m not sayng one living cell, nor “all cells matter”. But a “lump of cells” that are forming a human being is categorically different than a virus or bacterium that are alien and hostile to your natural body.
I’m also not saying abortion is 100 right or wrong. It’s not that black and white. There are a multitude of reasons it’s justifiable. But I don’t support just willy nilly getting an abortion bc someone made a mistake or 3 in life.
