No, it's not misleading at all. Whether you agree or not, and whether the cartoonist is right or wrong, his point was still valid. "If this, then that." It's how logic works.
You can call gun-owners wrong if you like, and you may be right. That said, they are always worrying about the possibilities of the future, not the limitations of today. "Slippery slope", "Camel's nose in the tent", "Domino effect" and all that.
