(24,853 posts)That was Hoyt's only response to a thread I posted last year concerning rational discussion of gun laws, and how I felt gun laws should be approached.
So, when Hoyt says I "support lax gun laws", I'm afraid I have to say Hoyt is a LIAR. Hoyt's GDS (Gun Derangement Syndrome) allows or possibly even forces him to tell lies without hesitation nor compunction. His GDS alters his reality to the point he can't remember what he's read or said in the past. In short, it causes him whether he realizes it or not, to tell lies. This is sad. Very, very sad. Would that someone could find a cure for GDS.
Hoyt says I "promote gunz". What does that even mean? Do I stand at the corner wearing a sandwich board that, instead of saying "Eat at Joes" says "Buy More Gunz"? That I lend my face to ads by gun manufacturers selling their product? Or do I post here at DU that "moar gunz is the answer"? I can assure you that you will not search DU and find any evidence of an instance where I "promote gunz". I DO support the right of an individual to own firearms, according to the Second Amendment. Of that I am not ashamed. I do not believe The Framers would add an amendment to their document that says, to wit: IF, the citizen FIRST satisfies THIS condition, the federal government SHALL NOT infringe upon their right to do THAT.
Hoyt says I "promote... toting". Read the previous paragraph.
Oh by the way, here's the link to Hoyt's response to the thread I started:

And, here's the OP he responded to:

Now, I called Hoyt a liar, and not without reason. Hoyt lied. I DO NOT support lax gun laws, and am on record stating as much, causing Hoyt to respond in what I can only term as a conciliatory tone. So to the people who are inevitably going to sit on a jury to hide this post because I called Hoyt a liar: I would ask you; before you vote, follow the links and see WHY I called Hoyt a liar, because without that context, the reasoning might not be evident.
Hoyt? You're a liar.
