Sure, I’ll bite as a gun owner. Knives and guns are both tools. But there’s a big difference in how they’re used, their purpose, and the danger posed.

You adopt many kids? The day there are zero kids for adoption, that’s the time to make this argument. And you’d still be wrong, for trying to force someone to carry a fetus they don’t want to term. A fetus is not a baby. Full stop. A cluster of cells /=/ life. Moreover, there is no dignity or nobility in forcing a…

OR, you walk in, go to the bell-desk, say you’ve already checked out but your flight was delayed, and they’ll store it free anyways...

It varies. In CA the dealer can cancel the contract within 10 days if they can’t find a buyer for the loan, etc. Ergo they can cancel within 10 days. So, if you were to say, string them along, say you’ll be back to sign the new contract at a higher price in a few days because you’re out of town, once you hit that day…

I know what a poppy looks like, same with MJ, and even Coca. Can you tell me where guns grow? On a bush, tree, or shrub? Do they need certain types of soil? Oh, that’s right, they’re not natural resources converted in a small pop up lab. They’re manufactured in factories. How many firearm manufacturers does Mexico…

GOOD! He can’t get a rifle (which has superior range, accuracy, and capacity), so he has to use something inferior. GOOD. Anything we can do to make it more difficult for a crazy person to murder kids.

It’s not really a mental health issue. It’s a guns issue. There are violent video games and mental health issues in every other first world country, but no school shootings. Nah, our obsession with guns trades tens of thousands of Americans every year, in exchange for 250 bad guys killed by a good guy.

Around 250 a year. That’s the number of justifiable homicides, per the FBI’s Uniform Crime Report.

Here’s the telling part:

And here’s where the numbers (or lack thereof) come in. There are certain stats we know, and that come from reputable sources. The FBI’s Uniform Crime Report tracks the number of violent crimes and homicides, but not “defense gun uses.” If you want a number on those DGUs, you’d have to rely upon surveys. Some may be…

The answer is “no.” That is beat into every single gun owner: do not EVER pull out a gun unless you’re going to use it. If you draw your weapon in response to a threat, you’ve now put a target on yourself; the assailant may target you specifically, or your weapon can be taken away and used against you, etc. In…

Awesome! This will work then. As a responsible gun owner I’m sure you’ve taken at least a few classes/training and had plenty of range time, and are familiar with gun safety. The reason this discussion requires a gun owner is because of one particular issue of gun safety: drawing a weapon. The question I pose is this:…

There’s two massive differences between us and countries that were invaded in the Second World War: the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean. Kind of a nifty buffer.

Absolutely, but it requires you be a gun owner to play along, otherwise you’ll claim that the numbers are meaningless. Are you a gun owner? Not necessarily with a CC, but a firearm in general. (we need a gun owner for this to work)

We can very easily debunk your “gun stops crime” myth right here and now. Are you a gun owner? Not necessarily with a CC, but do you own firearms?

Oh, we absolutely can prove it. Are you a gun owner? Not necessarily a CC, but do you personally own firearms?

We have a thing for foreign threats: its called the Military. We have a thing for domestic threats: law enforcement. As for overthrowing the Government, I didn’t see that right anywhere in the Constitution. Moreover, you’d be hard-pressed to make a credible argument that armed civilians would stand a popsicle’s chance…

He should have just settled for a dismissal. Nissan wasn’t trying to “win” they were trying to bury someone who didn’t have attorneys on staff. His best case scenario was to keep the domain, but he was never going to win $, and had a very minuscule chance of getting his attorneys fees covered. This was a crapshoot.

You’d still have criminals, the vast vast majority just wouldn’t be armed. Which I’m ok with.

oh the “ ‘well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a Free State’ clause is invisible” argument
