"Note that this “on the one hand†and “on the other hand†does not arise from looking at different aspects of the same case but from focusing on two different kinds of cases. The pro-gun side focuses on cases of legitimate self-defense (and hunting and target-shooting). The anti-gun side focuses on wrongful uses of guns: the Newton killer or an enraged husband who shoots his wife (and on deaths from accidents with guns).
Both sides are looking at cases that are real. The question is: how can we take all of them into account? What is the proper way to think about this issue?"
