I was taught never to point a gun at someone, whether I was pulling the
trigger or not, or even if I thought it was not loaded.  Always assume it
is dangerous.

My point is saying that I am a politican who is only going to go after
dangerous guns leaves me a lot of leeway to go after pretty much every gun
that has not been permanently disabled (and made useless) somehow.

Sounds like you understood my point.  :)
