But that was my point?

As long as you know its tangental to the point I was making thats perfectly fine, and im happy to discuss.

Nobody’s saying (well, I’m not) that gun violence is the only type that can be addressed through the legal system and all the others are just down to the perpetrator.

Correct, no one is saying that, nor did I imply anyone was. What I did say is the rules that people use when talking about gun violence is always radically different than the reasoning around any other type of violence.

For gun violence, knife violence, whatever, if there’s a weapon involved you need both the weapon and the wielder.

Sure, thats not one of the ways in which people reason differently. So sure, thats expected, normal, and largely irrelevant to anything I said, so yea sure.

To address it you can/should always address both sides of that fact, surely?

Both sides of what fact? I dont think anyone, not me or the original comic suggests you dont need a murder weapon with some weapons over others.

And we do.

Do what? Im still very confused what point your trying to make.

I’ve never seen anyone say that you should address gun violence solely through gun laws

Yea, I never said I saw anyone do this either. No one claimed this was an issue.

I’ve never seen anyone say that you should treat knife violence solely as a problem with violent people.

Nor has anyone in this thread claimed this…

You said you had a point to make that apparently is irrelevant to any point I made… Im not sure I understand what that point is, or even if its a point that I or anyone would disagree with. It still looks like your missing my point and responding to something unrelated I cant track.
