>>766513Their irresponsible use doesn't mean that people who use them responsibly also shouldn't have them.
Your analogies are also telling. Guns are not destructo-rays, especially pistols. Comparing their ownership to using a flamethrower in the forest shows how ignorant you are of firearms and their actual use. I carry a .45 in my pants literally everywhere I go except in the shower and while I sleep. And I have had plenty of opportunities to argue or start fights if I wanted to, but I'm not an immoral fuckwit with an inferority complex, so I de-escalate and act responsibly.
Do you not drink alcohol because some people drink like idiots and either poison themselves to death or get in a car and kill themselves or others? Do you not drive cars because some people use them like fuckwits and act completely irresponsibly? Do you deny yourself the right to own kitchen knives or baseball bats because people have used them irresponsibly in the past? Only those things are totally unimportant compared to you life or your family's life. If a mag full of .45 can flip the middle finger to someone trying to murder my wife or my sons then by damn I will fucking ventilate that son of a bitch.
I realize I hijacked the thread and I apologize for that, I won't post about it anymore. You are all just so ignorant of real life that I had to post one more time.
