Pretty simple and easy read. The last one should do a good ob explaining to the progs on here why the 2A is heavily defended.

Interested in any logical rebuttals.

I hate these arguments. When was the last time tobacco killed 17 people who weren't using it?

The second amendment is easy to defend without using crap articles like this.

Probably yesterday.

Since 1964 over 2.5M people are estimated to have died from secondhand smoke.

Driving and going to your doctor is more dangerous than having a fun day at the shooting range.

Man, if you drive through the Taco Bell at 2 AM (obesity) with a cigarette (smoking) in hand after a night of partying (alcohol) on the way to the emergency room (doctor) for a sprained ankle you got from stepping in a pot hole while leaving Fred's, you are practically a dead man walking with all those risk factors.

My grandmother never smoked a day in her life. She died from lung cancer from second hand smoke.

Yeah, but the character was pretty much credited as “lovable idiot”.

In the instance of school children, more kids have been killed in school bus accidents in the last 20 years than all recorded school back to the late 1800s combined, but school systems have decided that putting seat belts in school buses would not save enough lives to justify the expense.

Except he's not, because second hand smoke kills quite a few more than 17.

It is a shame that nothing has been done about preventing second hand smoke, or smoking in general. but then, what can we do? criminals will still smoke inside restaurants and bars, leaving only honest, responsible smokers to be punished.

Listening to the non-smokers, I'd say 17 non-smokers are killed every second

More poeple die from blunt instruments and bare hands than all rifles combined. But democrats still think banning the AR-15 will end murder.
