Because fuck having to evaluate utility vs risk, am I right?
People fall in bathtubs and get injured. Ban bathtubs.
People drown in pools. Ban swimming.

Having to rely on a car to get to work is just as important as "I like owning a gun because it makes me feel powerful." right.

And if you're going to bring up cars, yes let's require just as rigorous training/permitting/titling/registration/insurance for guns similar to cars

The original complaint was that even one person getting killed causes so many problems.

I agree with you, might as well ban bathtubs, swimming, etc.

Utility vs Risk is exactly right. Sure, I could get away with using something more primitive like a Bow and Arrow, but why would I do that if I can have a firearm? (Like why would I ride a bike 20 miles to work if I can own an automobile).

While you may not like to admit it, there is utility in owning a firearm. (maybe not in cities, but certainly in rural areas)
