As you start to list properties that the animal lacks to justify eating them, you begin to realize that some humans also lack those properties, yet we don’t eat those humans. Is this logical proof that killing and eating animals for food is immoral? Don’t put away your steak knife just yet.
In Eat Meat… Or Don’t, we examine the moral arguments for and against eating meat with both philosophical and scientific rigor. This book is not about pushing some ideological agenda; it’s ultimately a book about critical thinking.

There could be a false cause (also known as questionable cause, confusing correlation and causation) fallacy there, since the correlation between gun control and mass shootings is asserted as a causation. If the arguer goes on to logically justify or provide evidence for the causal link between gun control and mass shootings, his argument won't be fallacious anymore.
