how do we ban this triggered?
« on: February 16, 2018, 05:06:50 PM »
i was on FB this afternoon and a friend posted about the florida shooting and how we should do something about this, yada, yada,etc. i posted the typical demonization of ar15's, how gun control wouldn't work, etc. when some women i don't know posted that i was like the shooter, nikolas cruz and i'm just like him and people like me should never be allowed in this world, etc. lol! i told her her meds weren't working and that she should change the dose. she said she would report me to the local police.......she did! cops were at my door! we had a good laugh.

There is no way to have a reasonable discussion online.   This was my experience on reddit when I said I had owned guns 
People in this country and ready and willing to give up their rights for some illusion of safety. 
I dont  bother with any more attempts at rational discussion.  (added amendments that would be violated as well).


...I was told my home should be searched and I should not object because "you have nothing to hide."
4A

I was told that government confiscation of guns without compensation is worth it to prevent these events.
2A, 4A, 5A

I was told that I should be monitored if I owned more than 2 guns (firearm profiling I guess?) just like I should be monitored if I deposited a large amount of cash or used tor (anonymous internet access)
2A, 4A


"if you have more guns than brains, the authorities should be allowed to detain you for as long as they need to ascertain that you're not a f'ing psycho"
2A, 4A, 5A, 8A


I asked if I should be detained and tortured if I used my right to remain silent. I was told that remaining silent makes me look guilty.
4A, 5A, 8A

Fucking bullshit.
Your "friend" should be the one arrested for false reporting.
There was a thing called freedom of speech - now we've become so embroiled in reporting "indicators" we are in a thought police, witchhunt.
That's why I am really annoyed that people lump me in with these crazy people just because I own a gun that they used. So a murderer / terrorist who drives a certain make/model car through people can be associated with all people who own the same car?!

Hey, at the opening of the legislature a couple of years back we had a little rally.

When it was almost over an older woman walked straight up to us and said "You should all DIE!" Among other epithets.

Her own bloodthirsty hypocrisy was lost on her.

Dunno, she had my name. I’d say hpd responded rather quickly. My neighbor is law enforcement and went over to tell him what’s up. We all had a good laugh.

I still keep in touch with a bunch of college friends, many who still live in very Liberal Seattle. Anyways, they had a discussion going about how no one needs an AR15. I don’t engage in the open, so I messaged my “acquaintance” to correct some things.

I did get him to see many of my points, but yeah. Got the “your group” of gun enthusiasts being grouped with these deranged shooters. He asks me questions and throws out emotional reasons. I mean I have empathy, but he then refuses to want to hear about facts of matters. Going with what he knows and what he hears from MSM.

I corrected many things in his reasonings. He of course got super defensive along the way. I stuck with the facts. He then said that “it would be better if gun enthusiasts weren’t so defensive”.  :crazy:

Then after correcting many of the things he was ignorant about, I made a comment that gun enthusiasts often gave to deal with ignorance and much of that is from folks who have no knowledge of firearms nor do they care to learn for themselves. I didn’t anywhere close to calling him ignorant. Well, he got super defensive and fired back some emotional tirade about referring to those calling for gun control ignorant. Like talking to a rock.

I get the most mileage out of having discussions in person and inviting people to the range. Putting a gun in someone’s hand does a great job of destigmatizing and removing the mystery from firearms.

I agree. I’ve gotten more than a few friend’s wives to accept firearms. A couple even eventually came to enjoy shooting and bought their own. Experiencing it with someone they trust really helps. Many are often too afraid to try.

Yeah, many don’t care to try. That’s cool, but it’s when those who have no experience with firearms spew ignorance about them drives me nuts.

I display different bumper stickers that are pro second amendment by my office desk every day. Right now I have one that says "Fight Crime Shoot Back". I'm an NRA life member and wear a shirt that displays this fact. I read the "American Rifleman" magazine at work and keep my magazines right on my desk.

Who gives a shit what people think. I just saw a decal on eBay that says "This is what the average gun owner looks like". That may end up in my eBay shopping cart and on my office wall.

I don't try to justify, rationalize, or reason to anyone about me exercising my first and second amendment rights. Their anti gun mentality is set. We just can agree to disagree. Just let me be and we will get along just fine.

Here is a shining example of the idiocy we are against......


If anyone is interested, the law he is talking about is the one that made old people, unable to do their own finances, targeted for removal of Second Amendment Rights..   :wtf:  Even the leftist ACLU was against this BS.  He probably read just the fricken title of the article, to hell what's inside!     >:( :( >:( :(

That is the sort of demented bitch that would run you down in a road rage incident.

What she did amounts to a SWATing and could have cost you your life.  Should be arrested.

I'd say Kim Jun Un is very stable BECAUSE he has nukes. Without them he'd be at serious risk of getting Afghanistanded, Iraquified, and Syrianated.

Weapons make home invaders think twice after all, even if they see themselves as World Police.
If you allow government to break the law for an "emergency" they will create "emergencies" to break the law.
