22. Yeah, I know. Kind of shocking, really. Thought I had a sure thing there.
This is why I don't gamble.

2. We have guns that don't kill people now
They are called tasers and they are widely available.

3. Wow, you don't follow the news too much, do you.
Google "Taser, death".

Also, the so-called "non-lethality" of tasers seems to be encouraging officers to use them in many situations where they are not needed.

Or maybe you like riding 50,000 volts...

9. How about this?
You come on over with a shotgun, kick in my front door, and shoot a hole in my ceiling at 2:00 A.M. while you're high to get everyone's attention so my wife, son, and I know that you're not here for a social visit and see what happens.

Or should I just stay in bed and hope my stuff disappearing with you is all that's going to happen.

I may then have 2 guns that have killed someone.

Your obvious implication that I'm eagerly awaiting my chance to do someone in with a firearm is sophomoric and wrong.

If you want to talk about animals, paper, clay, and a multitude of other sporting targets; I've put several thousand pounds of meat on my table and those of my friends and family over the years (including providing game to several programs for the homeless and poor), cracked enough clay for a few tennis courts, split enough bowling pins to supply a bowling center, and perforated enough paper for a small newspaper Sunday edition.

My firearms are primarily for collecting, hunting, and sport shooting. Self/home defense is on the list, but only a priority when a life is in danger.

Trolling by the likes of you is annoying at best. You haven't a clue about the real world and likely have no desire to get one.

I'm thoroughly pissed off by your smug attitude, powered by ignorance. I'll stop now before I say what I really think and get barred from the board.

20. By logical extension
supporting unrestricted marriage, speech, reproductive rights, etc. are equally insane.

How does it feel to post Repug ideas on DU?
