Guns are like Climate change...

[Diesel42]

Except that, unlike this article, the consensus on climate change is based on objective analysis among experts in the field.

No, it's not. It's based on the same bogus "research" and emotion that gun control is based on. The earth hasn't warmed in over 18 years now. In fact it's giving signs of entering a cooling trend. Those who agree with the consensus are either ignorant of the facts or deliberately obtuse.

It is based on math models that model solar and atmospheric and oceanic processes that are not well understood at all.
The CO2 / greenhouse thing is a way oversimplification. Water vapor, natural methane, cloud cover, and many other things vastly outclass CO2 as a warming factor.

And a small volcano on the other side of the earth can really screw with the "predictive" models.
