Why your gun makes me nervous [View all] sarisataka Jan 2015 OP
It was probably a colostomy bag and the guy was self-conscious. pipoman Jan 2015 #1
If an African American (or Mexican, Chinese, or other) tells you they think something is racist Electric Monk Jan 2015 #2
we can Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #7
If it was in any way comparable sarisataka Jan 2015 #11
Do you tell people that want to defend themselves that it is all in their heads? Nuclear Unicorn Jan 2015 #15
Ok, so how many times have guns saved your life? Where, without one, you'd be dead? Electric Monk Jan 2015 #18
The same number of times a seatbelt has saved my life. Nuclear Unicorn Jan 2015 #19
Does your hypothetical woman carrying for self defence need a 30 round mag, bayonet lug, Electric Monk Jan 2015 #23
I'm not in favor of "taking everyone's guns away"... NaturalHigh Jan 2015 #28
My only problem with you keeping guns in your house is it increases the odds of you getting shot. nt Electric Monk Jan 2015 #29
Okay, whatever. NaturalHigh Jan 2015 #30
How many times have you been shot. Nuclear Unicorn Jan 2015 #33
Once, when I was mugged. If I'd had a gun too it'd probably have made the situation even worse. Electric Monk Jan 2015 #34
And how would disarming non-criminals have improved your situation? Nuclear Unicorn Jan 2015 #37
I don't know where they got their guns. Could've been a gun show parking lot "private sale". nt Electric Monk Jan 2015 #39
Maybe even the same place they took your money to buy illegal drugs. Nuclear Unicorn Jan 2015 #41
I'm sorry that happened. Veganstein Jan 2015 #118
There's a video on YouTube of a Detroit woman defending her home with an AR-15. Nuclear Unicorn Jan 2015 #35
I cannot believe you cited the bayonet lung? branford Jan 2015 #40
"I'm not in favor of "taking everyone's guns away"" beevul Jan 2015 #42
I think total prohibitionists are just as unrealistic as some of the extreme rkba fanatics. nt Electric Monk Jan 2015 #45
How many of them, have you or the previous host blocked for it? beevul Jan 2015 #50
Of the 41 blocks in GCRA, 39 were blocked before I was a host, so I can't say for sure why each was. Electric Monk Jan 2015 #52
Nobody is telling you to do anything in particular. beevul Jan 2015 #53
well here is the one that got me blocked Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #59
And here is the one he was agreeing with. oneshooter Jan 2015 #61
and what was stated was totally true Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #62
Here is the blocking message. oneshooter Jan 2015 #63
I think it's safe to say you were both blocked for being already known hardcore gunthusiasts Electric Monk Jan 2015 #64
No, we were blocked Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #65
So you are saying that the host lied about the reason? n/t oneshooter Jan 2015 #66
Oopsie. I doubt *that* question will be answered... friendly_iconoclast Jan 2015 #67
You're picking nits. That host blocked you for your attitude about guns and gun control. As would I Electric Monk Jan 2015 #68
What attitude about guns or gun control Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #69
Then you admit that he lied about it in his post. n/t oneshooter Jan 2015 #79
I admit I have no way of knowing what they were actually thinking when they wrote that post. Electric Monk Jan 2015 #84
You can un-ban him krispos42 Jan 2015 #134
like that would ever happen Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #138
Are you saying the SOP of GCRA is a lie? N/T beevul Jan 2015 #70
You are obsessed. Get help. That group is NOT YOUR BUSINESS. Goodbye. Electric Monk Jan 2015 #71
Nope. I'm not obsessed. I'm just someone who has been paying attention... beevul Jan 2015 #74
quite amazing Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #75
It really is. beevul Jan 2015 #81
If what you say is true, then why isn't this poster blocked for this one post. oneshooter Jan 2015 #80
It is, however, quite telling how much you worry about it. nt Electric Monk Jan 2015 #72
Credibility and legitimacy. beevul Jan 2015 #73
we just point out Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #82
Do you and oneshooter agree with Electric Monk Jan 2015 #86
Care to drop the subject now? Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #87
But you disagree with that part of the SOP, so why do you even want to be part of the Group Electric Monk Jan 2015 #88
have a civil discussion Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #90
known hardcore gunthusiasts Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #76
you make excellent points samsingh Jan 2015 #48
This seems incredibly strange to me. Veganstein Jan 2015 #115
Good standard!!! sarisataka Jan 2015 #20
When is the last time a seatbelt or life jacket killed someone, intentionally or by mistake? nt Electric Monk Jan 2015 #24
I could look up the last time sarisataka Jan 2015 #25
Now you're shifting the goalposts. Your standard in post #20 was reducing deaths and injuries. nt Electric Monk Jan 2015 #27
No sarisataka Jan 2015 #31
Feel free to link to statistics comparing them all. I'm not going to waste time looking for you. nt Electric Monk Jan 2015 #32
Here is a start sarisataka Jan 2015 #43
I thought we were talking about seat belts and life jackets? You're shifting goalposts yet again. nt Electric Monk Jan 2015 #46
You're funny sarisataka Jan 2015 #47
i read the same comment and that's not what electric is saying samsingh Jan 2015 #49
EM has the opportunity to refute me sarisataka Jan 2015 #54
I already did, then you started changing the subject and shifting goal posts, so I'm done here. Electric Monk Jan 2015 #55
Nope- nice dodge sarisataka Jan 2015 #56
Simple answer: of course not. I didn't say that above because I thought you were being rhetorical.nt Electric Monk Jan 2015 #57
Thank you for the straight answer sarisataka Jan 2015 #58
what you think is not answering the question is in fact answering the question samsingh Jan 2015 #78
My brother in law LynnTTT Jan 2015 #77
ROFL, what a hero! A role model to gunthusiasts everywhere! Thanks for sharing :) nt Electric Monk Jan 2015 #83
You are brave to post here and argue, let me watch you and admire you randys1 Jan 2015 #26
you should thank our host Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #60

The irony is not lost sarisataka Jan 2015 #12
I can't figure out why she does that. Brickbat Jan 2015 #13
It makes no sense sarisataka Jan 2015 #14
"irony" Nuclear Unicorn Jan 2015 #16
It's a very strange story all around. Beyond the author's distorted view of risk, it makes petronius Jan 2015 #21
I didn't read that one last night sarisataka Jan 2015 #22
Bet this was a work of fiction... ileus Jan 2015 #36
It's delusional cop-lover propaganda Man from Pickens Jan 2015 #38
Oh, I dunno, the cops seem pretty harmless to me. Nuclear Unicorn Jan 2015 #44
My husband's guns make me nervous HockeyMom Jan 2015 #51
That can't be true. It's all in your head. Just ask the glib sociopath gunthusiasts in this thread. Electric Monk Jan 2015 #85
Perhaps you can identify the glib sociopaths in this thread? N/T Marengo Jan 2015 #89
To whom might you be referring? Straw Man Jan 2015 #91
If someone thinks that the characterization might apply to them, then they just might be right. nt Electric Monk Jan 2015 #93
I doesn't apply to me at all. Straw Man Jan 2015 #97
Well, it does not apply to me either Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #98
Evading the question? GGJohn Jan 2015 #111

one of how many? Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #123
So who exactly blueridge3210 Jan 2015 #124
Hello, Bueller? Bueller? blueridge3210 Jan 2015 #125
So EM, simple question Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #126
Looks like he's afraid to reply to the question. blueridge3210 Jan 2015 #128
It is ironic Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #129
Your deep concern over the answer just answered your own question, to a degree. Electric Monk Jan 2015 #130
You accused one or more posters here of being a sociopath. blueridge3210 Jan 2015 #133
Ok, and that means what? GGJohn Jan 2015 #127
Cartoons can be an effective medium to convey ideas, and are often good teaching tools Electric Monk Jan 2015 #131
The ones you do post are all anti gun, and IMO, are idiotic. GGJohn Jan 2015 #132
My guess is that the group he hosts is sooooooo boring, GGJohn Jan 2015 #117
I suspect you've not the slightest clue about sociopathy. Lizzie Poppet Jan 2015 #143
That wouldn't be the only thing blueridge3210 Jan 2015 #144
I guess it's the Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #94
"glib sociopath gunthusiasts in this thread" Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #92
it's all he has. blueridge3210 Jan 2015 #95
yep, really sad actually Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #96
guess he ran away Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #99
I have to wonder blueridge3210 Jan 2015 #100
I agree Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #102
Hoyt was blocked for less. N/T beevul Jan 2015 #103
7-0 to let that insult stand Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #104
7-0 eh? Yeah, you should be ashamed. Perhaps you would feel more at home on ar15.com. Electric Monk Jan 2015 #105
never been a member Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #106
Ehh, warmed-over McCarthy style innuendos (along with pompous self-righteousness)... friendly_iconoclast Jan 2015 #108
Thanks, no I am not angry Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #109
"I answer when I want to, if I have something to contribute." friendly_iconoclast Jan 2015 #107
Why yes it would Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #110
That's a the problem with you, GGJohn Jan 2015 #112
You are then breaking the group SOP Duckhunter935 Jan 2015 #119
How does that song go? beevul Jan 2015 #137
