    Hitler killed about 275,000 disabled people in his effort to create a master race. Obviously, he believed their lives had lower value. And now there are people here who seem open to believing that he was correct.

    And you seem to be one of them when you devalue men over women.

    Then go about demonstrating precisely why such a belief is actually held.

    Strict gun control prevents both men and women from being murdered and dying from suicide. All lives matter to me so I support it. Your claim is simply untrue.

    Again false, and you cannot find any actual numbers to back that lie up with.

    That you doubt the lives of the disabled have equal value. Otherwise, why would you even ask the question?

    Tell it to the people of the city of Chicago. Even when the city maintained a total prohibition on all handguns, such firearms were the primary method for all murders committed. Their annual firearm-related death toll far exceeds the number of all deaths attributed to mass shootings in the united states in any given year.

    Gun ownership prevents both men and women from being murdered. Suicide is a personal choice. All lives matter to me also; some more than others.

    Interesting. I feel I left it open but I can see how you see it that way. Do you feel all lives have the same value? Hypothetical situation: you are on a sinking ship and have a chance to save only one person. Do you try to save the closest person to you, a young person, an old person, a family member? Your choice but if all lives have the same value I'm thinking you would grab the closest person instead of trying to save a family member.

    FALSE. No person has ever been harmed, let alone killed, by a firearm.

    That is TRUE. Not one person has ever lost their life due to the action of a firearm.

    Definitely. I do not view myself as being less valuable then fully able lawyer, doctor, or professor.

    The same can be said to justify dangerous narcotics.

    Is a person doing life in prison as valuable as you? Is that person in prison as valuable the lawyer or doctor or professor? Is the registered sex offender living just down the street as valuable as you or me?
