"wscott52, thank you for your kind advice, but my idea of education doesn’t include gun ownership, as it doesn’t include living in fear." So, what you're saying is that Olympic competitors who shoot Free Pistol live in fear? That Jerry Miculek, who is one of the fastest and most accurate pistol competitors alive lives in fear? That David Tubb, who designed and built the world's most accurate competitive rifle lives in fear? Matt Burkett, one of the top Multigun and IPSC competitors lives his life in fear? All of the nerdy engineers at places like Sierra all live in fear? What's …

"Should I apologize for that?" You could start by having an open mind. "Oh, right. Gun lovers are the victims of "simple" bigotry. My liberal heart bleeds for you, bro." Given the broad-based, close-minded and sometimes even downright hateful reactions I've received from leftists on the gun issue, yeah, I'd say they're pretty bigoted against gun owners. As I pointed out earlier in this thread, the percentage of guns that are misused in crime doesn't even amount to one-tenth of one-percent of all of the privately held guns in this country, yet people on your side of the aisle continually call …

Excellent illustration of the myopia of the anti-rights crowd. Cheers, Captain Awesome

Whoops, my bad. The percentage was 0.015354%, or closer to one-fiftieth, which is way smaller than one tenth. Geeze, you'd think you could have at least double-checked my math before going all schizoid. Regardless, perhaps you'd care to elaborate on why you think it's a good idea to punish 40,000,000 law-abiding gun owners because around 30,000 guns are misused. And if you do think it's a good idea, perhaps you can illuminate us on how you would go about executing such a plan. Bonus points if you can do it without references to how I'm just The Man out to hold …

"I can see where that might terrify you." Mmm. Your irrational psychological projection is so sweet and yummy! Cheers, Captain Awesome

I'm just going to ignore your cute 'n' petty attempts at race baiting. I have to say that I've never much cared for Glocks. I think CZ and Springfield Armory make far superior products. That said, your understanding of The People of the Gun is so ill-informed and rife with errors that I'm quite frankly shocked that such a level of outright ignorance could possibly exist, even here on t3h int3rw3b. Perhaps you shouldn't be airing an opinion about things you quite plainly don't have the first understanding about. But, hey, what do I know about guns, I mean, I only …

Actually, that link was super-lame, and no, I don't gotta love it. Perhaps we should keep the discussion related to the topic of guns, instead of spewing talking points from Free Republic who's expiration date was somewhere around 1997. Cheers, Captain Awesome

Trying to sway pro-gun advocates by posting an article that was written by the Violence Policy Center is a tactic made of Grade A FAIL. Do I even need to point out that most of their "studies" wouldn't be academically or statistically rigorous enough to pass muster in a high school civics class? Oh, major major, you're so funny! Cheers, Captain Awesome

Dude, seriously. Stop embarrassing yourself. Hitlery? Billery? 1995 called, they want their cliche political pejoratives back.

So, who wants to place odds that major major's just a spambot? You know, what with the epic posts that are just copied and pasted from other websites with no attempt to actually engage us in debate. I find it hilarious that s/he posts a link to an article that shows how the Canadians have incrementally tightened their gun control laws since the late 1970's. Why hilarious? Well, if gun control actually worked as intended, there would be no need for the gradual constriction of the law, now, would there? But hey, I guess major major seems to think that if …

Eh. major major's already lost the debate. s/he has no interest in actually engaging in a dialog, and has simply resorted to spamming the board. Am I really to be expected to engage in a point-by-point fisking of the information s/he's posting? If so, what's the point? It's patently clear that major major has already made up his/her mind on the subject, and refuses to even entertain our arguments. What would wading through an army of Googled-up strawmen accomplish in the end? Nothing, really. I guess I'll just have to take solace in the fact that more states now allow concealed …
