Do they make organic guns? Would you even want to own one?

And what do you think would com first from you owning one? Kurting the end or killing people?

What the fuck are you even saying?

Does this figure include both legal and illegal owners? How about the owners who are also on drugs or in rehab? Or the gun owners also on welfare etc. 99% of anything is surely to be a lie.

No, other countries have a similar level of personal liberty.

How about "effective public transportation is a right" That'd be so sweet.

What kind of gun should they be ok with you having? You can waste all kinds of people with a pistol, or a hunting rifle. Or a car.

Or filling his restaurant with propane gas and lighting a match.

Ic, you never struck me as the kind of guy that 'laziness' was what was holding you back from killing

What I mean is that I know what type of person I am, and if I was on the other side of the coin I wouldn't want myself owning an AR-15. It's not that I don't want one, it's that I know I shouldn't have one. It's a really bad idea, but there's other motherfuckers just like me that don't have that sliver of self control that keeps me from having one.

As for mental health screenings, it's stupidly easy to trick psychologists into thinking whatever I want them to think.

Same. I don't have a gun because I'd use it.

Yep.

So lets change the lives of everyone else because of crazies?

This is just as bad as saying pot should be illegal because of that one annoying guy from HS that only talked about getting high. Or because of the handful of criminals that smoke pot too.

Or no girls should dress slutty because of that one girl that got raped while looking slutty.

It's really not the same thing.

I'm all for rifles and the such, I'm just against borderline military armament.
