In reply to the discussion: Connecticut Gun Owner Kills His Own Son [View all]4th law of robotics

so you're treating your strawman the way you imagine he treats you?
Perhaps you two should start your own forum. The Straw-bong variety hour. He could make nonsensical claims like "The NRA says we shouldn't have cops" and you can reply with equally nonsensical claims like "Anyone who owns guns is a delicate flower working for the NRA".
Dean Martin could sing songs about the true meaning of the 2nd amendment ('gun ownership is a collective right doled out by the state . . . aint that a kick in that head'). And maybe a reunited Sonny and Cher could do a skit about the perils of home gun ownership (obviously he'd be the one getting accidentally shot every five minutes).
The Brady-Campaign could fund it.
I'd watch.

And they would have sent somebody out to investigate as quickly as they could.

And you're aware that murdering vigilante gun owners often claim "lunging" occurred.

I'm not sure what the point of this post is supposed to be. Masked armed criminal was shot.

At this point we really don't know if it was reasonable that father shot his son...
