Members King Kashue Posted August 14, 2009 Members Share Posted August 14, 2009 My cousin killed himself 15 years ago. Shotgun to the face. I've been there dude, and it wasn't the gun's fault, nor the fact that his dad lived on a farm, had guns to kill coyotes, and is a hunter. He was depressed and didn't want to live. If there hadn't been a gun he'd have found another way. If someone wants to die, they will. If someone wants to kill, they will. Just as a wife who stands up for herself doesn't turn her otherwise good husband into an abuser, a gun doesn't turn someone suicidal.

Members wades_keys Posted August 14, 2009 Members Share Posted August 14, 2009 Yes, they were your posts. With Geezer, quoting Canadian law to rebut your unsubstantiated claims. Whatever you say. At least I cited REAL WORLD examples, in the midst of others referring to 'black markets' and other concepts with NO CITATIONS WHATSOEVER. You're fooling yourself buddy, but you don't fool me. PhilthyGeezer has more intellectual honesty in his pinky than you'll ever know, though your education and perhaps IQ is superior. You would do well to learn from his example.

Interesting, since he and I made the exact same points about gun restrictions in Canada, making mention of the exact same laws, and the exact same reasoning for why your comments weren't applicable.. Yet, in your perception, while we said the same things, he was honest, and I wasn't... Again, not surprising... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members King Kashue Posted August 14, 2009 Members Share Posted August 14, 2009 By the way, isn't it about time when you accuse me of insulting you, and then when asked to quote the insult, you stop posting? Judging by previous iterations of this nonsense, it seems like we're right around that point... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMS Author Craig Vecchione Posted August 15, 2009 CMS Author Share Posted August 15, 2009 Whatever you say. At least I cited REAL WORLD examples, in the midst of others referring to 'black markets' and other concepts with NO CITATIONS WHATSOEVER. You're fooling yourself buddy, but you don't fool me. PhilthyGeezer has more intellectual honesty in his pinky than you'll ever know, though your education and perhaps IQ is superior. You would do well to learn from his example. Your REAL WORLD examples showed nothing more than people motivated to be violent and doing so. Making guns more difficult to purchase legally only makes it difficult for law abiding people to purchase guns. It will do NOTHING to make purchasing guns illegally more difficult. People are remarkably resourceful when it comes to doing harm to themselves or others. You're thrashing around and lashing out at people who are being reasonable and rational, and it's because you have an emotional tie to the issue. You aren't capable of discussing this dispassionately and are proving that moreso with every post. It might be time to step away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members oldivor Posted August 15, 2009 Members Share Posted August 15, 2009 So wades makes claims without sources, they get rebuttal by multiple people (some with links etc) and then wades says people aren't citing stuff and basically aren't worth anything? Just trying to get it clear here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
