Try to remember that this is a discussion of what would happen if someone could make guns just disappear.
In other words, you shouldn't take it so seriously.

A gun is the simplest and most efficient way for an old lady to make herself as formidable as a large man.What happened to your republican ideals that everyone should pull themselves up by their bootstraps?
If you or she feel likely to be outmatched in a knife fight, get off your ass and learn how to fight with a knife.
You wouldn't say 'well, she's probably outmatched in a gunfight, so she should get to have a grenade/rocket launcher/nuclear weapon', right?
No I'm not.

In a gun fight the bigger you are the better target you make.
I'd just like to point out that this is an impossibility according to our best current understanding of the laws of physics.
Nah. Just a different advantage. Big man is still younger, faster, and stronger. The gun just gives her a chance and makes him think twice.Sounds to me like guns give a little old lady a big advantage. It's not fair to the large man!
The old lady needs to be given a handicap.

Why are you lefties so dedicated to making cartoonishly bad arguments?Indeed, you might want to just blast anyone who pulls into your driveway by mistake. Lot of that sort of 'self-defense' needed, it seems.

Yeah i thought you were trying to have a real discussion. Barfos post is full of isht. i take my apology back.
I guess when you have no rational argument for the stance one takes, just make ridiculous statements and then laugh it off as if it wasn't a serious conversation. lol
That was lame…
barfo
Some people like to have real discussions snd debate with a level of rational maturity bro. Why do you feel the need to play the spoiler in those instances?
If you cant have a real discussion, why post such nonsense?
I get not taking everything serious, but at times you should take things seriously. Why engage if you cant keel it up and up?
I didn't know you were joking. I've heard many whacky arguments on this issue.Some people like to have fun and fool around bro. Why do you feel the need to play the spoiler in those instances?
Like any good pirate, I know to keep the keel down.

You like to fool around and have fun with a very hot topic of guns? That seems reckless to me.
id say pick your spots better. Guns aren't a joking matter when someone is trying to have a serious discussion. Just a lame way to post man. Lame. So does this mean any post you have ever made about your Gun stance shook be taken in a joking matter? I doubt that. Ive seen you post very serious opinions. You should know better when to joke and when not to. Its insulting to those who take it serious. Id have more respect for those trying to discuss guns than you do apparently…
Some times I post seriously. Sometimes I don't.
Almond Joy's got nuts. Mounds don't.
As for my post to you, I was commenting on what you said about blasting people before they get close, and observing that there's been several cases recently where a homeowner shot a kid before figuring out that they weren't actually a threat at all. That's the downside to blasting people before they get close. Sometimes the big scary threat that you need to blast with your gun turns out to be a lost kid looking for his little sister.
barfo
Sorry man. I'll make you a deal. I'll post the way you want me to, if you will post the way I want you to. What do you think?
barfo
But that isnt what he said. He said someone coming st you with a knife is the post you responded to that had the ridiculous post you made.
and my reply:If there's a home invasion you might want to be able to blast someone before they get within distance.
Indeed, you might want to just blast anyone who pulls into your driveway by mistake. Lot of that sort of 'self-defense' needed, it seems.
barfo
Maybe we are talking about two different posts then. I was talking about this post (excerpt) of his:
and my reply:
What post(s) were you talking about?
barfo
Pulling into a driveway is a home invasion to you?
Thats ridiculous. A home invasion is breaking an entry. And maybe you want the ability to shoot them in the hallway before they get to your children's bedroom or wife in the livingroom.
Your response was absurd.
But now were you joking or not?
Or are you just backtracking for some bad tasting humor?
or are you just never wrong and never make a mistake or simply incapable of saying “sorry guys. I shouldn't have made a joke. I see its a serious topic for you?”
smh…
Sorry. I apologize for not posting the way you'd prefer I post. I offered a very fair deal to change our posting styles, but you aren't willing to meet in the middle.
barfo
Got it. Your preference is to double down on a stupid post. Got it…
And then he'll be able to defend himself with the knife^
Someone needs to give this guy butter, cause he’s on a roll!
Never said i was. Doesn't change the opinion it was a stupid post and in my view, disrespectful to those trying to discuss guns. He chose to deflect and backtrack and i called him out on it. Nothing more, nothing less.You're not the arbiter of deciding who gets to post what in a thread.

If he doesn't like being called out then don't engage with such nonsense.
I get called out for stupid posts all the time.
Of course he is free to post absurd replies and are we not also free to call out the absurdity of such posts?
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me, for meSo disrespectful to people that want to discuss guns. Shame on you.
