Has anyone ever seen, or made a flowchart like the ones we have for "Is your gun legal?" that breaks down gun control arguments, claims, and responses. Reading comments from online articles I see the exact same talking points over and over and the exact same responses over and over. I cringe every time I see someone make an easily countered argument or spouts off a false claim or misleading statistic.
I think it would be useful and educational to take the very best pro and anti gun arguments and create a flowchart with the best responses from both sides. I would also include poor arguments and show how they could be countered on both sides. It could be a living document that was added to and changed over time as new information and better arguments were revealed.
Each branch of the chart would either loop into another portion or stop when it reached a proven falsehood or unprovable assumption.
I've considered doing something like this myself and just never gotten around to it. Maybe i will someday. I think it would help inform the debate on both sides.
