A FACET is a low level issue that often reoccurs in many arguments in support of the author's stance or in attacking the other author's position.
PROBLEM: Sent1: It is asserted, therefore, that the D.C. gun control laws irrationally prevent only law abiding citizens from owning handguns.
 Sent2: Common sense gun control laws the gun haters want will only affect the law abiding citizens, not the criminals.

SOLUTION: Similar

PROBLEM: Sent1: I haven't seen anyone explain how another gun control law will fight crime, how it'll make anyone safer, how it'll put criminals away longer, etc.

SOLUTION: Not similar

PROBLEM: Sent1: People who follow laws, aren't causing problems with the guns they own.
