You ask us to acknowledge they are frequently misused...
Is that what the gun companies directed you to say?They are inanimate objects.
Warmists believe that gas-powered cars are killing machines too, they just think they are destroying the planet.
You think banning all guns will stop all shootings. Warmists believe banning all gas-powered cars will save the planet.
You ask us to acknowledge they are frequently misused...what you cannot acknowledge is if you remove the guns, we will still have people out there who will find other killing machines and FREQUENTLY MISUSE THEM.
Just like the warmist cannot acknowledge that EVs end up using fossil fuels just like gas-powered cars do.
You guys let your emotions override logic and common sense. And the left preys on that.
If we followed your logic, we would actually end up with MORE gun deaths.
If we followed warmist logic, we would actually do MORE harm to the planet.
You guys end up hurting the problem you think you are solving. It is what it is.
And we have an unending supply of problematic people.They are btw...by problematic people.
And we have an unending supply of problematic people.
We can acknowledge that, he cannot. Same way warmists can't acknowledge that the charging stations for their EVs are powered by dirty fossil fuels.They are btw...by problematic people.
Then you understand why your idea of removing all the guns is pointless. Good job.And we have an unending supply of problematic people.
No, but I think that's what you parrot to deflect from logic that you don't want to hear.Is that what the gun companies directed you to say?
Should we crack down on criminals and other dangerous people? Absolutely.We certainly do. We can absolutely agree on this point and that we should take action to prevent those people from being able to touch a gun.
Should we crack down on criminals and other dangerous people? Absolutely.
Will that immediately end crime? Of course not but it will help the situation over time.
Same thing with killing machines.
Right. So we throw common sense out the window.But those killing machines are protected by the second line item in the bill of rights.
We can do stuff. We can get better at being safer. We cannot disarm the American public. It isn't possible and it would be wrong.
So you think the solution here is to eliminate all guns, along with the US Constitution?Right. So we throw common sense out the window.
I don't care how many people are getting gunned down every day, the second amendment says "shall not be infringed".

Do yourself a favor. Search my posts and find somewhere I've suggested eliminating all guns.So you think the solution here is to eliminate all guns, along with the US Constitution?
From earlier in this very thread:Do yourself a favor. Search my posts and find somewhere I've suggested eliminating all guns.
Just eliminate that angle of attack so you won't look so brainwashed.
I have no specific plan. I don't need one.....it's not my job.
I want to radically reduce the number of guns in America. I don't really care, within reason, how it's done.
You are a remarkably poor reader.From earlier in this very thread:
Ok, so your plan is to 'radically reduce the number of guns in America', and eliminate the US Constitution?
Right. And you're somehow getting 'eliminate all guns' out of that.I quoted you.
I can quote it to you again if you like:Right. And you're somehow getting 'eliminate all guns' out of that.
Maybe get someone you trust to read it to you.

I think 50% would make a significant difference but more would be a nice bonus for decent Americans.I can quote it to you again if you like:
So you clarified: You don't want to remove 100% of guns from society, just 95%. Totally different meaning.
Oh and eliminate the US Constitution. Totally reasonable plan.
And what happens if you remove 50% of the gun supply, and in the process 100% of the guns law-abiding citizens own?I think 50% would make a significant difference but more would be a nice bonus for decent Americans.
You mean if we accidentally totally disarm law-abiding citizens? Did the gun companies tell you that was something to fear?And what happens if you remove 50% of the gun supply, and in the process 100% of the guns law-abiding citizens own?
Does that increase or decrease gun violence?
Does eliminating the US Constitution increase or decrease gun violence?
You told me you want to eliminate 50% of guns.You mean if we accidentally totally disarm law-abiding citizens? Did the gun companies tell you that was something to fear?
You mean if we accidentally totally disarm law-abiding citizens? Did the gun companies tell you that was something to fear?
Did they also tell you that people in favor of common sense gun laws want to eliminate the constitution?
You really need to start taking what the gun companies say with a grain of salt.
We take guns from criminals all the time. Now we need to make it harder for them to simply rearm.You told me you want to eliminate 50% of guns.
What's your plan for ensuring that those guns are taken from criminals and not law-abiding citizens?
You seem very open-minded about guns.You are as stubborn on this topic as Fever is on DeSantis.
You aren't seeking a rational conversation.
Still not seeing a plan.We take guns from criminals all the time. Now we need to make it harder for them to simply rearm.
That is correct. I don't need to come up with a detailed plan. It's not my job.Still not seeing a plan.
You seem very open-minded about guns.
What is your job? Making illogical and emotional arguments on a message board?That is correct. I don't need to come up with a detailed plan. It's not my job.
Rescuing suckers from the gun cult one by one.What is your job? Making illogical and emotional arguments on a message board?
Rescuing suckers from the gun cult one by one.
Both are good ideas.Theo, my goal is to change a behavior. Yours is to take away guns.
That's a rather stark difference, wouldn't you say?
You’re in a cult because your ability to think on your own has been taken away by the gun companies. You can only believe what supports their interests.You're only solution is to "take away as many guns as feasibly possible...but we're in the cult?

Is that the 53rd or 54th time you have posted that today?You’re in a cult because your ability to think on your own has been taken away by the gun companies. You can only believe what supports their interests.
If you change behavior, the guns are irrelevant.Both are good ideas.
Well, if you take away all guns there would be no gun violence.If you change behavior, the guns are irrelevant.
