You fixated on it as a distraction from my point ( with citation) of the fact that being killed by a cop is pretty unlikely. You don't want to address that, and judging by your conduct so far - I don' t expect an acknowledgement.
You're too enamoured with the liberal mythology.
Yeah, you did start it:
Quote:A security system isn't of much use when some maniac is beating down your front door with an axe - with the intent of dismembering you.
But a gun would sure be handy.
I admit that I fixated on it, because it was a bloody stupid thing for you to say. You want to own guns, fine. You want to argue in support of gun rights, I'm fine with that as well. But you're not doing your side any favours by bringing up an outrageously unlikely scenario to make your point.
Yes, I agree that getting killed by a cop is unlikely for anyone. But - spin it however you like, it won't make it any less true - a black person is more likely to be killed by a cop than is a white person.
I'm a liberal, so I'm unlikely to be enamoured with any other mythology, now am I?

It's not as " bloody stupid thing to say" - It's a hypothetical situation. You can change " axe" for " hammer", " lead pipe", "Your mother's dildo" or whatever you like. It's not important.
You just chose to make an issue of it to avoid the point -
a gun is a real fucking handy thing to have if someone is attacking you....
