I get that you see a gun and you immediately think "crazy person"...but that's probably not true, and clearly isn't a good foundation for a law.
Nice straw man. I never said that when I see a gun I "immediately think 'crazy person'", nor did I suggest that were true, nor did I suggest that I was remotely qualified to diagnose tens of thousands of people I've never met,

Quote:I said it was true OF THE PEOPLE I KNOW who carry, and it is true of ALL the people I know who carry. And I do mean people I "personally know", as in, "my friends and acquaintances". I KNOW the guy who shot himself. He's an idiot. I KNOW the guy who can point out the RFID chip line in the ACA which isn't there. He's not nuts, but he's scary close.Well, maybe there should be a law against the two guys you know carrying a gun to a polling place, then. /shrugs
Quote:And there should be because gun violence is already a real problem in America and, contrary to the utterly ludicrous claim, the answer to "bad people with guns" is very much NOT "good people with guns" as all the evidence EVER points to. There were "good people with guns" at the night club in Orlando. People still got shot.Meh, there's a narrative about gun violence being a very real problem in america. Truth is we have a suicide problem, that;s 6/10 of gun deaths, and a drug war problem..the remaining 4. So unless you're worried about some guy offing himself at the polls, or a meth war breaking out at the lever...I'm not sure why our -actual- gun problem is relevant?
Quote:So, what exactly are "the things I worry about" that are already illegal anyway? I don't remember telling you what "the things I worry about" were.Apparently, that crazies and or dummies would show up to a polling place with a gun and hurt somebody - which is already illegal...and nothing to do with a polling place. It;s illegal -everywhere-.
Quote:You are seriously projecting here, pretending you know more about me than you possibly could. You are also seriously exaggerating what I said and claimed. If you want to have an intelligent conversation, I'm all for that. But don't put words in my mouth and don't pretend that you could possibly know "the things I worry about". A serious conversation is an honest conversation and nothing in your reply was remotely honest.If you say so.
