Want to sell more guns? Vote ( D )
RE: Want to sell more guns? Vote ( D )
The gun industry isn't having the same trouble. They explicitly and implicitly market to people who've shown an interest in shooting other people - and one day, they'll point to those people that already bought their guns as the dangerous nuts that others, who haven't yet, need to arm up against.

It's the grift that keeps on giving.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Rational people see the many flaws in gun ownership without gun owner responsibility.

I wonder what my mini-14 with folding stock and b-square mount and sight with 500 yard bullet drop compensator would go for? Perfect short range sniper rifle...

I also have a Ruger P90.

I haven't shot the fuckers in over 10 years.

The mini has a few cracked parts but they are cheap to replace and one of them is the iron sight so...

A rational firearm owner, is going to tell others what a rational drivers ed teacher would teach about cars. "Treat it like a weapon" Assume it can kill you at any time. Assume it can kill others at any time. Unfortunately both firearms and cars are treated as "fun" and not responsibilities. 

Treating a car like a weapon is smart. I don't mean "aggressive" like you are attacking other vehicles, but my driver's ed teacher in HS said, "Always assume you have a atom bomb strapped to the front of your bumper. Meaning, keep your distance and obey the speed limit. If you do that, you are far less likely to injure yourself or others. 

But far to many firearm owners treat firearms as toys, not responsibilities. Just like lots of drivers love the thrill of speeding on public roads, but then bitch when they get a speeding ticket.

Not sure. I ballpark priced my toys recently. The ones being sought, current market private sale asking price was anywhere from 4 to 6 times my original purchase price.

Quick check says the Ruger is around $500, the mini 14 is $1K to $1.5K.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

Holky smokes Bullwinkle that is so much more than I paid! Bought the Ruger for about 250 and the mini for around 350! I'm betting that if I parted out the stock and scope it might be worth more.

How do you know how firearm owners treat their firearms?
You are never around when the firearms are visible.
Because you're home putting on dry pants.....

If your constant reaction to "you don't need big clips" or to stockpile weapons like you are landing on the beaches of Normandy" but react like those pointed that out are going to rape you with a barbed wire condom, which they will not, YOU have a mental problem and a fetish and worship of firearms.

You are a fucking cartoon..

And a momma's boy with daddy issues to boot.

Um no, you are a danger to sanity. 

I know that you have a childish kneejerk reaction to someone suggesting seat belts and air bags. 

I have momma and daddy issues? 

Please explain to me what that has to do with firearm violence?

I'll make you a deal. I will be happy to shut the fuck up, when America gets to the level of firearm violence as say Japan or New Zealand. Or are you going to be a fucking dick and stupidly claim they are fascist dictatorships, which they are not?

When I protested the Newdow Pledge case in support of Newdow, who lost, I didn't bring weapons, I didn't threaten violence after finding out Newdow's case was rejected by the SCOTUS.
