This is basically the argument that shuts down every lib talking talking point about gun control. If they persist, you can always mention the fact that so called “assault rifles” are used in about 2-3% of US homicides in a given year.

LOL! Their counter would be; “Well that’s 2-3% too much.”

It never shuts them down. It just annoys them to further irrationality.

The number is less than 1%. If you include rifles of all types it is about 2.8%.

In comparison about 13% are killed with knives, 3.5% by blunt objects, and 5.5% by fists, feet, hands, etc.
