guns are tools but they're machines, they can be controlled by people who use them
viruses? eh theres a lot of more going on that could go wrong

The stuff I work with is a lot scarier than guns, so guns don't interests me too much because guns have a limited, local scope.

i mean

i like guns because they're machines

the way they work and stuff is cool

Like you can only kill who is in your area. It doesn't spread geometrically. The limit is the local people.

ah shit its pandemic time

Again, it's my field... Guns are outside my field. How virulent pathogens are is in my field, so politics regarding genetic research is more relevant to me.

And I'm likelier to get sick than be shot.

So, what do I think of gun? Don't care so long as I'm not being shot at.

time for black death 2 electric boogaloo

well thats not a virus but still

Your chances of dyinf from a pathogen are WAAAAAAAAY higher than being shot.

The flu can randomly be lethal and people get it all the time.

i got a cold a week ago does that count

Yes, because viruses can cause subtle damage to tissues of organs. Like a cold could turn into heart failure.

i just drank a lot of water and ate very simple food
and sneezed alot but dont worry i covered up

Humans have historically been killed by disease at higher levels than by guns are swords.

Cold and flu viruses can turn serious and lethal real quick

ah shit https://dialogochino.net/28472-china-looks-to-latin-america-as-swine-flu-hits/

You know bacteria and viruses can do what is called horizontal gene transference, right. That is fancy speak to say they can swap parts among themselves and change virulence.

Staph bacteria and e coli love to do this.

remember kids always cook pork all the way

How do you get a staph infection?

The bacteria is on your skin.

Basically, yea, a nasty staph infection can take you out.

and thats why basic hygiene is important

That makes no sense, but whatever.

i'm joking

i tend to get sick often

So would it not make more sense for you to be pro medicine than say pro gun lol

i mean...
what?

nobody really says they're pro medicine thats kinda obvious of a think to like

Your chances of needing a gun are lower than you being sick, so, mathematically, politics concerning the spread of diseases would me more relevant

guns are more of a hot political issue at the moment

medicine isnt really as controversial

So, we are going with trends over reason. Got it.

no....? i mean i'm pro medicine but not an issue people are voting over

its already pretty commonly accepted medicine is important

do you mean like increasing funding to medical research?

No, in interests. Basically, you can mathematically state a person randomly meeting a mugger, robber, or gunman shooting up a place is drastically lower than randomly running into a lethal pathogen.
