(16,974 posts)a gun can be used by a bad person for a bad thing. Same as many other things. But hundreds of millions have not been used that way and are used safely over that same time span.
I doubt he will be back to discuss his post, would be nice but not going to happen.

(1,401 posts)It would be interesting to hear the OP's thoughts on the issue. Alas, he seems to lack the cognitive ability to actually discuss the issue; prefers to Google Dump and move on.

End of interaction Buh-bye
blueridge3210
(1,401 posts)given his posting history in this group. I have seen no one on the pro-RKBA side "belittle" anyone. Not sure where you are going with the " fantastic excuses regarding screen names" meme.
Oh, well. Run away if you are unable to actually engage in a discussion regarding the issues.
Don't let the door hit you.
Duckhunter935
(16,974 posts)Curious on what that is about
I think the OP is afraid of discussion and actual facts, but since he refuses to enter a discussion we will never know.

IronGate
(2,186 posts)Nope, what you're afraid of is honest, open debate, where your views might get challenged with verifiable facts instead of conjecture, allegations, and downright lies that you seem to love to post.

(2,186 posts)the other group that he hosts gets very little traffic, especially since one of his biggest fans seems to have pulled a vanishing act, so he has to post here and in GD to get his 15 minutes of fame.

(16,974 posts)about us posters in this group, can you just make a comment on the story that you cut and paste so we may be privileged by your position and discuss your position since you refuse to do that with us?
I am shocked you actually posted. I give you credit for stating your reason, even if I think it is wrong.

IronGate
(2,186 posts)Nice to see that you're defending his lack of debate.

Almost as if... AWBs did nothing to prevent mass slaughter.
Hmph.
