You can’t be this closed minded. It has to be emotions clouding your thinking. You write some well thought out ideas, and then close with “never” and “no” statements.

I’m for gun ownership, and was on board with your first two paragraphs as reasonable, well thought comments.

I believe we should be able to own a weapon (with much different regulations), and I despise the NRA. Like most large organizations, it’s been taken over by big business, and has strayed from its base principles.

Amen.

I was going to type a much harsher reply here, and embarrassingly realized it. I corrected myself. Anyway...

Amazing that you got this many stars on your comment. People just get fired up for the extremes on either side.

Current events show your argument to be incredibly weak. I’m no gun nut, but I also can realistically look at the situation and realize that armed citizens can be incredibly effective against militant takeovers. There is a reason countries don’t just bomb their own people that often - in the world today there would be…

Many amendments were authored by those same people. Get rid of them all? This is a silly argument.

Genuinely curious here - at work and can’t look it up anytime soon:

I agree with you (I think), as you are disagreeing with the original comment. Unless you are reading it totally different than the rest of us, or you think I’m responding to another post.

I can’t believe so many people starred this comment. It’s just wrong on so many levels. The comments above explain why, so I won’t get into it, but wow - so many fools starred this, it’s crazy.

It’s clearly “Muscle Gerbil”. And no, we don’t all look the same.

This made me laugh.

I prefer Mighty Mouse syndrome, in this case.

You are shortsighted as hell.

The guy on the board was maybe 20 years old or so. No parent. Just a guy who was too lazy to walk 30 feet to the elevator, and thought he looked cool doing it.

True story, young man came in to the hotel I’m staying at on a hoverboard a few days ago... and promptly ran over a little 4 year old girl.

What if the women gave you money?

Stabbing myself in the knee with an ice-pick diminished my enjoyment of Destiny.

I’m so tired of seeing this hippy in a lab coat picking bud every 2 or 3 clicks.
