The rest of us say that DUI presents an unacceptable risk threat. If DUI is 'victimless', then firing a gun into a crowd is also victimless if the bullet happens to miss everyone.

And so, following your logic, posession of a gun would carry the risk threat and the same penalty as shooting it into a crowd.

Do you get it now?

discharging a firearm in a populated area, but no matter, it's against the law...   ....following your logic, posession of a gun would carry the risk threat

Aside from the fact that possessing a gun at the wrong place and the wrong time can be a felony, you don't want to try and say that firing into a crowd is no worse than just owning a gun.
