Two questions later, Beto had dropped off the Reddit program.
So if Beto wants to ban a weapon that is, as he put it in his Reddit answer, "So often used to kill and terrorize people throughout this country," why ignore the one that kills and terrorizes the most?
Why not ban knives, which were used in three times as many murders in 2017 as rifles?
The same year that rifles took 403 lives, cars and trucks killed almost 6,000 pedestrians, and killed another 783 on bicycles.
Almost as many drown in bathtubs annually as are killed by rifles.
If any of this seems far-fetched, consider the fact that Democrats already have a long and growing list of things they promise to ban if elected.
During the CNN town hall on global warming, for example, Democrats promised to ban plastic straws, incandescent light bulbs, internal-combustion engines, nuclear power, factory farming, as well as off-shore drilling, fracking, oil exports, and coal mining.
