Is there X amount of mass shootings that would change gun supporters' minds, or is that the wrong way to think?

And there we have it–“the positive uses of loaded guns”, is nothing more than an opinion based on what you choose to value. There is a no less valid argument to be made against alcohol and in favor of alcohol prohibition (not by me, I love booze–but I would concede the argument essentially makes itself–alcohol is bad for you, causes innocent people to get hurt, causes severe behavioral issues, and a large percentage of all crime–not just DWI, involve people intoxicated on alcohol.)

In a free society we don’t eliminate people’s rights simply because you may not value that specific right, sorry.
