17. That person asked a perfectly reasonable question.

You made an irrelevant reply about the source of the info you presented and told him to get lost. You then doubled down on the non-responsive dismissal before the seemingly-inevitable (and justifiably hidden) small penis blurt.

That hardly demonstrates interest in any sort of "discussion" at all, adult or otherwise. If you just want to insult gun owners, fine...but may I respectfully suggest the Gun Control Reform Activism "safe haven" group for that. You might still get alerted on, but most gun-owning DU'ers don't bother visiting that group, so you're probably okay.
