Glad to see you lack a response.

You consistently refuse to address any point you disagree with and then use demeaning terminology to hide your ignorance on the subject.

Oh I'm sorry, I thought it was obvious that you already lost the debate. You just admitted in your previous post the two things I was trying to prove.

1) that laws change whether through addition, subtraction or revision (even the constitution through amendments).
2) laws are necessary for society to properly function.

Unlike your inane comment of people working together without government. What a joke.

I know you like to think people would destroy each other without government, history of the world shows countless civilizations that were able to survive without government. You just choose to ignore these examples because your desire to control others dominates your collective being.

Individual liberty and personal responsibility scares you. since you can pass control over to the "government" you no longer have to be responsible for your lot in life. It is now always someone else's fault and every negative consequence someone else faces should have been prevented by the government.

If you're so scared of government why are you still living here? I'm sure there are plane tickets to Mogadishu.

late to the thread.
Just wondering where the chart is for guns obtained legally for non mass shootings. I'm sure the totals for individual shootings, the death count is much higher than the mass shootings. I'll bet the total for just Chicago exceeds the national mass shooting total by a large amount.
I understand using charts to prove a point, but when you purposely omit charts to skew a viewpoint and people see it, you automatically lose all credibility as someone you can reasonably discuss things with openly

You would need to have a point to actually respond to.

Making a statement about moving to sub Sahara Africa is not a point.

I have a friend that will be moving to an area where bears are know to be around. People carry big calibre handguns for protection when walking or hiking. The idea of carrying a gun with only one bullet is absurd. Even with 6 rounds you might be lucky to hit a charging bear once and it more than likely will not be enough to stop it from mauling you.
