People die in car accidents despite wearing their seatbelts. Forcing people to wear their seatbelts while driving is wrong because it doesn't grant 100% survival rate.

Ah, the classic "seatbelt analogy". Everyone's favourite vaccine analogy that makes zero sense if you actually just stop and think about it for a minute.
Go on.
How long a minute are you taking? It's been three years.
I'm actually an excellent driver while drunk. Maybe some people can't handle it but, but I haven't had an accident once. The laws should be updated to make it legal since drinking and driving doesn't 100% guarantee you'll get into an accident.
Another ridiculous analogy.
Keep going, maybe you might get to one that makes sense.
you know you're actually supposed to provide counter arguments, maybe explaining your reasoning and thought process?
He can't though. Only allude to being able to.

I don't know man, sounds like you're just retarded to me.
You realize kevlar doesn't stop all rounds right? And there's a chance that if you're wearing a kevlar vest, you could still get shot in the head or the major arteries in your legs, but you have a much higher chance of surviving a shot with it on because the torso is the easiest target to shoot on a human being.
