No, its a pretty childish one, and not very useful. For instance, a
child is killed more often by falling into a 5 gallon bucket than a
firearm, per year, in the US. Ban 5 gallon buckets. More people are
killed by automobiles than any other cause, per year, in the US. Ban
cars.

If you're truly concerned with the life and death of folks, surely
firearms would be the least of your worries - these are just two
examples from the leading cause of death in the US. There are plenty
more where they came from, and all of them rank higher than firearms.
