Gun control and slavery have nothing to do with each other.
I explained why they do. Slavery and gun ownership are both excesses of personal power. An unjust claim on another man's liberty or life.

Yeah, the government that had the guns owned the slaves, and the other government that had MORE guns freed the slaves. We should get rid of guns...........is your argument?
And if the other government had more guns, the slaves wouldn't have been freed.
What does that say about the value of guns in resolving disputes?
(never mind that the Civil War wasn't really about slavery at all)
