Another gun thread based 100% on emotion zero logic.


Everyone dies somehow. But, I could sacrifice the closest gun grabber.

Oh, no honey, I'm just getting started. But you need to explain, exactly, who this "enemy" is that you think is "emboldened by the 2nd Amendment". I'm not going to ignore what you said because you want to weasel out of your own comment now.

Before we truly begin this discussion, definitions must be clear. You said "enemy", singular, not plural. You were very strong in your initial comment about "the enemy", but now that I'm asking you, who, specifically, that enemy (singular) is, you don't want to stand by your own comment so strongly anymore.

Just answer the question so we can move on: Who, exactly, is this (singular) enemy that you feel "is emboldened by the 2nd Amendment and is" killing people.

Then why do we need a 2nd amendment to begin with?

As you probably saw coming, no one here that owns a gun seems to be able to think rationally on what "Enough" is.
They either dont have any family and friends and they are lone wolfers, or they dont care about family.

But they wont be honest and admit which family member has to get gunned down by a family member for them to decide theres a problem. I guess they can never talk about what would make them emotional because it would show weakness, even when it involves family, and it wont be consistent with they have been saying all along. Not even on a forum where it wont make a difference. This country is doomed because of these people.
As long as they have their guns, they dont have to care.

They are incapable of being honest about this subject.

And then, there is this from page 4:


Quote:
As discussed at greater length later, historically, most estimates of gun ownership come from either random-digit dial telephone surveys or, in the case of the General Social Survey, in-person interviews of respondents. Online panels such as KP have been used increasingly in the social science literature to overcome the cost and response rate limitations of these survey modalities

I'd be embarrassed if I posted what you did....

You could not have taken the time to read this through. At least educate yourself. Also, I was providing research in response to a poster asking me about "stockpiling" of guns.
