      Yep. It sounds like a weird hypothetical by a pro-gun activist, and it would be ineffective, but the dude seems utterly sincere.

      Banning a useful but abuse-prone technology is always going to create both inconvenience for legitimate users and some level of prevention. What the right balance is is a tough, complex question and probably very dependent on when and where you ask it, that unfortunately often gets boiled down “but the children” or “but freedom”.
