Honestly, these arguments make sense, and I don't own a gun.

I wish the public at large could understand these are largely parallel to the arguments FSF makes (at least to me, they are)

I won't hold my breath waiting for the followup news report, "GNU software is now more likely to kill you than a car is in the U.S."

edit: to make this comment more than just a dumb throw-away joke, I'll add that sometimes the consequences of an argument are as important as its assumptions/logical soundness.
