It does make sense to use the correct terminology in a debate imo

If the debate is about kids dying the arguments should be about how to stop that. Not the exact make and model of gun that killed them.

Arguing stupid details like that just makes it seem like you don’t care people are dying.

I thought the argument was about what sort of guns to ban

Then you haven’t been paying attention.

But that’s the main point of the debate, the legality of owning certain firearms

Maybe for people who don’t care that people are getting killed

I thought people wanted certain guns banned for the specific purpose of avoiding mass shootings
