RE: Let's Play "False Dichotomy"!
Fair enough, although that leads into a discussion of likelihoods and probabilities. Not everything is equally likely. But, at BEST, that leaves the gun-grabbers with the argument: "I want agents of the state to forcibly disarm you, because I don't know what might happen otherwise." They are advocating certain coercion based on a wild guess about a hypothetical.
Very true, which is an area I presume you don't want to veer into with a solid argumental point already in place.
In terms of the hypothetical itself the best thing would be to look at similar situations in history right? I think that'd be the way to go.
