Only in your mind are seat belts and guns related. 
No one opposes seat belts, no one is killed with a seat belt, no one prevents seat belt  crimes by pulling out a seat belt.

This is a lame, lame argument.  It requires a prosthetic to even slither.

Not in mind....but in practical use.  Like I said...do you want a list of article upon article upon article of people being killed by an auto, who weren't wearing their seatbelts??  I can then demonstrate a plethora of articles of people whose lives were potentially saved with the use of a firearm

There is no comparison between seat belts and guns.

     For both , you need to decide to have it , earlier than you need it, or it won't be there when you do.

    For both , you have it on a lot with little or no need at all , for the sake of the unexpected need when it comes.

      There are enough differences that no one would mistake one for the other, the similarity is in the argument .

Now let's compare it with your wife putting extra Tampons in her purse.
Or perhaps you packing some Depends or a catheter for that long trip.

There is no bingo, and this is your stupidest lamest argument ever.

  It is not exactly like being prepared for a dangerous crash, but it is exactly like being prepared for attack by a dangerous animal.

    How exactly alike do you need it to be?

    I am in an office chair right now , without a seat belt, it is my judgment that the need for a seat belt is unlikely enough to do without it.

     I am also not holding a gun at this time , same judgment call .

      Neither of these judgments is going to be the same always.

Exactly.  And the more xo decries how much Plane was in error, demonstrates just how much Plane was right on target....pun intended

Seat belts are not guns, they are not like guns. The whole argument is imbecilic.

And no one is equating that seatbelts are literally the same as guns.  What's being equated is how they can be used....TO SAVE LIVES

Yeah, guns are also just like aspirin tablets, mouth to mouth respiration, defibrillators and Heimlich maneuvers.

Except that they kill people.

At least you're on the right track.  Did you know a defibrillator could kill you as well??  Overdose of aspirins??  A Heimlich manuever done incorrectly could break ribs, which could puncture the lungs, or worse. 

ITS IN HOW THEY ARE USED
