Yeah, I get his point that it's the best general purpose rifle out there. If you need to own a gun, it's probably one of your better options.

But I still don't get why you would need a gun. For the most part, we don't need to hunt for our food. We don't need to shoot targets either. Home defense, maybe, but there are other ways to be secure at home without weapons.

I do agree with his point that if you're going to argue against guns, you shouldn't pick and choose categories that are "ok". It's either we ban guns or we continue to live with them in our society.

Do you feel we should also disarm the police? In my mind there's no reason the police should have a firearm that doesn't apply to someone being attacked in their own home.

You don't need a gun. I need a gun.

See. That's the problem. I am not forcing you to own a gun. But you're forcing me NOT to own a gun.

How about we let everybody do what they want? You can choose not to own a gun. And I can choose to own a gun.

It's called freedom.
