25. Lets just cust to the chase shall we?

"transparent smoke screen, juvenile ad hominem."


Says the poster that called me, "childish biased mentality".

When used as directed, guns kill, & when they do kill they are typically (generally) directed by gun owners, whether criminal, hunters, or law abiding.


First, convicted criminals by law, can not OWN a gun. So strike that from your little list there. We both know you weren't referring to those who have been pardoned when you said "criminals", so just save it mkay?

Second, no matter the words you use or the order you use them in, this simple fact remains true and unassailable by you or your dishonest cronies:

The majority of gun owners do not direct their guns to kill. And when I say majority I mean 99 percent plus Jimmy.

You define "as directed" in a way that ignores how most gun owners are doing the "directing". You know you did, I know you did, and everyone here knows you did.


But hey, two can play the equivocation game:

Gun control, when applied as directed, bans guns and infringes on the second amendment.

Oh, btw, there are questions pending here:
