#1 Here we see at work the liberal fallacy, apparent in debates on gun control, that weapons are the problem rather than the people with the capability and will to use them to kill others.

This is a subset of the real liberal fallacy: they believe that, in the end, mankind is perfectable. If you push hard enough, work hard enough, get rid of the reprobates and re-educate everyone else, we'll have a paradise on mother Gaia herself.

Whereas the truth is (as noted in the Bible and other religious writings), mankind is not and will never be perfectable.
