GUNS SAVE LIVES. YOUNG LIVES MATTER. OLD LIVES MATTER.
Next it will be the elderly. Already established age limit on the young end and they will say elderly are likely to have poor eyesight, poor coordination, deficient mental abilities, tendency to end their own lives, etc. and so justify no guns after 65 y/o and they will want to link it to withholding social security or some other such scheme. Once you limit various groups you are well on your way to nearly total control and each step will sound very reasonable along the way.
Good point.
I've not been able to find it, but MANY years ago I was impressed and saddened by the news account of a criminal who busted down the door of an elderly couple. He was shot and killed by the woman, but not before her husband had been killed.

OTOH, using liberal logic gun ownership/possession should be limited to only those 65+ because they commit almost no “gun crimes.”
