Inattentive drivers are responsible for killing people with cars - statistically more than firearms, by a long stretch. People steal cars and use them to commit crimes. Should we stop advertising them? Should we only allow 18 year olds to buy car magazines?
Cars are useful to people like Ms Cook - she has a legitimate use for them, ie getting to work, or to the shops, where she buys her soylent green, or whatever her groceries of choice are. I know my statements above will be ridiculed by her and her ilk, but only because of the utility, and therefore acceptability, of cars to those who would deprive us of any opportunity of interacting with firearms.
Feminine hygiene products - I don't see them killing anyone and can't see the connection to firearms - it does harm to our image to rabidly pursue an argument that is premised on revulsion at menstruation, to the extent that we would like to see all advertising of pads or tampons banned. An argument against something that is natural and ubiquitous to all women and has nothing to do with firearms makes licensed firearm owners look like a bunch of misogynistic hicks. We have enough trouble on our plates as far as public image goes without that stigma.
