Since property is so easy to steal then it’s probably not good for society to have minimal restrictions on ownership of firearms.

You're being deliberately disingenuous again, there's a massive difference between securing something on your person, and leaving it unattended in a vehicle - especially given how commonplace vehicle thefts and break-ins are. If you're going to troll to push your anti-gun rhetoric, at least try and go for reasoned arguments rather than ridiculous hypotheticals and apparently-serious hyperbole.

  It’s sad to think that we’re so deep into the gun lobby’s idea of normal society that you think what I am saying is “pro-gun rhetoric.” No, it’s not, my rhetoric is that of a person that wants to live in a society as the rest of the developed world understands it. Here’s my reasoned argument: our government is verifiably deeply intertwined with gun organizations and manufacturers. Without this influence we would see our nation’s wildly statistically abnormal situation as a cause for urgent action. Instead, we’ve been trained to think of that anything against our “freedom” to own guns as “anti-gun rhetoric.” https://archive.is/sNDTt https://archive.is/sNDTt

    Who is "we" in this? You're making things up, casing baseless assumptions, and I said "anti-gun rhetoric," not pro -- so if you're going to lie, at least don't make it something instantly disprovable. Your rhetoric is by your own admission rhetoric, and is demonstrably anti-gun, therefore "anti-gun rhetoric" is an accurate observation to make -- why are you getting triggered about that? I didn't say the NRA wasn't a steaming pile of trash. I didn't say there weren't issues with big gun manufacturers getting into bed with politicians, just as happens with corporations across the entire capitalist hellscale -- that's the nature of it. Instead, you just made baseless assumptions (which you're patently wrong about) and lashed out with your spiel. Don't assume. Quit trolling. Try harder next time.

      I meant “anti-gun,” that was a typographical error. What did you think of the article I sent? I’m not triggered by anything. I’m not trolling. I’m just disappointed.

That's like arguing that there should be no private property. Are you?
