2nd Encounter of the Day.... Over guns this time

[Nuclear Unicorn]

72. What tangents?

I'm discussing the OP and your reaction to it.

Why do you care who I like or hang out with anyway? What possible difference does it make in your life? Why the constant evangelization. Are you so insecure in your views that you have to convert everyone? You're backed by some of the most powerful moneyed interests in the country. What ordinary people think is inconsequential. You have power and capital on your side. I would think that would be enough to suit you. You'll get to keep your guns and we'll keep dying. There is no danger of a rush to value human life in this country. Profits will always mean more than human beings. Your interests are well looked after.

So, you've evolved from shunning the guy minding his own business and not shunning criminals presumed to be armed to feeling put upon as if you're somehow entitled to keep company with (presumably) illegally armed drug dealers. And then it morphs into a tangent that an unemployed assistant project manager (me) has all this powerful financial backing. And the work-a-day people who want to keep their guns because there are armed criminals (whom you won't shun and apparently feel entitled to keep company with) are more of a threat than the armed criminals you apparently feel entitled to keep company with. Maybe the armed criminals you feel entitled to keep company with are the reason work-a-day people feel threatened enough to keep guns? Maybe if people shunned criminals and stopped trying to disarm good people the criminals might find a different career.

"We'll keep dying."

Not from guns owned by good people. It's the criminals you should be speaking out against.

This is a very peculiar mindset and none of it makes sense to me.
