Well, to begin, I know literally no one who thinks owning a gun is the most important part of the Constitution, and I live in Texas... a place where people actually want to live free.

And let’s look at your “logic” of “if you can’t go anywhere with out one.. yea you’re a puss”, shall we? What good is a gun if it’s…

Wow. This might be the worst thing I’ve ever read on a Gawker site. You deserve a gold star!

I have a mental image of a My Little Pony tracking a deer across the neighbor’s lawn with a compound bow...

Crossbow and keep it on the down-low! (Just make sure it’s a clean shot or you might take it in the shorts!)

:)

Ah... so someone who wants to defend themselves is a pussy. Man, you’re a real mensch. Lemme guess, a REAL man* like you would just jump at 4 guys trying to rob you and kick their asses, single-handed. Amirite?

*We all know you’d piss yourself and end up in a corner sucking your thumb.

That’s because you’re an idiot.

The primary reason to own a gun is self defense. I’ve owned a gun since I was 10. I have yet to shoot anyone. I’m not likely to ever shoot anyone, unless they try to hurt me or my loved ones.

It makes me sick to see people like you shitting all over people who simply want an effective…

Places like Australia started with a gun registration, then moved a number of years later to a confiscation, and used the registration lists to ensure compliance. The same thing happened in a limited manner in California last year. It also happened in Chicago in regard to rifles in the 90's.

Furthermore, places like…

Unless you live in an apartment and can’t have fire, spend a little extra and get a propane smoker. I moved up from a good electric to a good propane, and the difference is startling!

Of course you didn’t talk about per-capita numbers. You aren’t really interested in statistics... just bashing those brown kids. You sure are happy to post how they commit 50% of all homicides though!

Without even the barest thought as to WHY that stat is there, you get an ugly little number that makes it look like…

They do, per capita. Absolute numbers are shit when you have such a huge discrepancy in populations. You aren’t very smart, are you?

I never said it doesn’t happen to white people.

In fact, if you scroll up a little, you’ll see my post where I very clearly stated:
“Not true. Cops shoot white kids too. They just shoot a LOT more black and Latino kids.”

I said it happens to black people at a rate 3X that of white people. Furthermore, black people live…

And about 75% of all people in the US are white, while only about 13% of all people in the US are black. That means there’s about 3X as many black people shot by cops on a per-capita basis. If you understand statistics, this is the significant stat, not the absolute number.

Wasn’t your college nickname Corn-Chute?

I worked for a Chiropractic college for a few years in the 90s. The head of it liked certain vitamins, and suggested them for me when I had a cold. It SEEMED to help me get over said cold a little quicker, and that’s pretty much the only time he suggested anything for me to take. He also sold it as “Something to help…

Per Capita, that’s a LOT more black kids.
Whites make up 72% of the population in the US
Blacks make up 12.6%
Hispanics make up about 16%, and there is crossover with whites at times.

The instance of black kids being killed is about 2.6 times that of white kids per capita. Latino kids are killed about 1.4 times more…

Not true. Cops shoot white kids too. They just shoot a LOT more black and Latino kids.

My wife works in the ED at Baylor, and worked with this family. It’s a tragedy.

I will. But I’ll also add that that’s only half of the story. Apparently they have a pretty sweet deal with a great backup plan. Snopes has a much better explanation than factcheck in this case.

You do realize that the Democratic congressmen did the exact same thing with the ACA, don’t you?

I mean, if you want to rail on hypocrites, I’m with you. But please try not to be a hypocrite when you rail on hypocrites.

I shave with it nightly. It’s not baby’s ass smooth, but it’s “Looks professionally clean cut” smooth.
