(754 posts)"I've just been told by over half this forum that nothing is wrong with the gun culture in this country."
Who has told you there is "nothing wrong with gun culture in this country?" You certainly haven't told us who these people are. You haven't even identified "gun culture."
"If they wish to ignore the realities of what goes on daily in this country..."
Meaningless. You ignore many things which go on daily in this country, don't you? In any event you have not told us what realities concern you, or why they concern you; such concerns would best be expressed in terms of policy changes. What are yours?
If you are concerned with the "dangerous work that police officers do," I think everyone here shares those concerns. Your point? Beyond whatever "disgust you feel about how you have been allegedly "disrepected," THIS in reality seems to be your concern:
"I for one am tired of seeing the defense of unlimited gun rights go unchallenged on this board."
Perhaps you are new here. Postings which challenge of the straw position (and that is precisely what it is) of "...unlimited gun rights..." are posted here daily.
Again, you have not related the news story to any argument you wish to make.
I think what frustrates you is this:
(1) Arguments made for gun-control are for the most part met and defeated by good argument;
(2) The patently mean-spirited attacks on pro-2A folks has not "gone unchallenged," a type of "argument" relied upon frequently.
Respectfully, I CONTINUE to await your explanation of the relevancy of your post to public argument.
