My next question...

How much of an over inflated ego can one person have?
Here I try to discuss this with you reasonably and you respond with a troll-worthy statement like that. I didn't say everyone except myself. I did say I think that the more available we make guns, the more idiots would have guns. Not the same thing.

And in fact, it's a logical deduction. For any group of humans, x% are idiots. If we expand the subset of humans who have access to guns, then that x% becomes a larger number. I've not said what that percentage is, but did mention my doubts about the vast majority of humans qualifying as "fairly intellegent." So don't smear me with your "everyone except for yourself is a moron" brush.

Do you want people to take you seriously or not? Because in the scope of the discussion you and I have had right here, only one of us appears to have an ego problem.

"Lets shoot everybody, that'll be the solution" is not a counter point. We're not so much pissed as to flabbergasted yet again at how you can say that and not be a troll.

Deadman's an obvious troll and irritant to boot but how come blindNsect hasn't had a lot of heat yet?

Really now, dude?

Are you living on campus or far enough to keep out of danger?

What pisses me off most about deadman is the fact he doesn't even answer questions, he just says you said something else, takes it as truth and then blows it out of all proportion.

Nah, the Israelis stop shooting sprees with an attack helicopter blowing up everything in sight. Shooting one guy is too subtle.

as both a native atlantian and as someone who will be staying a month in the mid west of mexico (leon to be a bit more specific) i am getting a little scared shitless. As much as it pains every fiber of my being to say so, i minutly agree with deadmans point that people should not be idle sheep waiting for the slaughter. also in no way do i advocate massive gun use on any scale. personal tasers or any less lethal weapons like mace or rubber composite bullets are alternatives for maintaining ones saftey in the event of an unavoidable violence without the mess of paper work or being "in the wrong" alan keep your head down your eyes on the books and your ass wrapped in kevlar, you'll make it out soon enough

Deadman, I dare you to come here and put your bullshit ideology into practice.

You try to defend yourself from the sicarios; you'll be fucking dead next week. You only have the privilege of having that childish stupid mentality because you're in no actual danger. You're sheltered in a redneck cradle where the biggest threat you have is "Obamacare"
You only raise your guns to nonthreatening threats you aggrandize just so you can stroke your ideological dick, but you'd never survive in a real world where might makes right.

When you lose, it doesn't matter how spectacular the fall was. When you die, nobody is handing out style points.

Do you one better...

Let them bring the heat to my yard if they're such tough,bad ass, killer mother fuckers.

They would receive a very quick lesson in hill fighting.

Because from what I've seen and heard they like to shoot up unarmed citizens that can't fight back.

Let them go up against someone with a good knowledge of his rifle and the lay of the land,none of them would last a week (and that's if they were lucky).

No but I would have the satisfaction of taking a few with me on my way down.

And that is all that would matter.

I could give you an infraction, but I still feel people enjoy ridiculing you.

*Troll mode off* Honest question time....

What's wrong with evaluating the problem and trying to find an answer to it?

Wrong again. You know how much joy, sorrow, agony, hope or satisfaction a corpse feels? None.

The only satisfaction you can have is the satisfaction you are generating in your mind now imagining events will play out the way you think.

Chances are extremely likely that the big, bad group of armed Mexicans caps your ass before you get your first round off.

Because unless you think John Wayne/Clint Eastwood movies are an accurate representation of reality, one gunman against a group loses ... loses fast ... and usually doesn't live long enough to take anyone else out.

They came in a convoy of six SUVs. They drove horizontally so as to block the streets; no one would ever come out.
They are professional assassins. You are a redneck with a couple of guns. Fuck you.
