[quote=enron_by_the_sea][quote=ocrenter][quote=CA renter][quote=Blogstar]The argument about using AK 47’s to fight the government is ludicrous.[/quote]
Why? Do you really believe “it can’t happen here”?
No offense, but that’s incredibly naive.[/quote]
but to argue for the utility of semi-automatics in our society on that point is bordering on clinical paranoia.[/quote]
Am I the only one that finds it ironic that people cook up hypothetical scenarios where they need such weapons to protect their life & liberty. However their actions actually take lives and actually reduce liberty of everyone else in the real world.
I guess, protection life and liberty of your own, even in extremely unlikely scenario, takes precedence over the real world life and liberty of others![/quote]
Enron: So my gun ownership “actually reduces the liberty of everyone else in the real world?”. How is that, exactly?
You’ve now tossed out two fairly hyperbolic postings, but haven’t offered up what your solution is, which underscores my point that this discussion is largely driven by emotion and not facts.
Do you favor a government-led comprehensive gun ban to “protect” your life and liberty, or do you have some other plan.
