And you don't even have your profile enabled or will tell us just where is this great crime-free city that you live in?

I think it's time to ban the troll...

Are you serious?


Yes.

Are you fully certain that every person you know owns absolutely zero firearms?

You can tell who has a gun and sho doesnt. Education, career success, appearance.[/quote]

This is the most asinine statement I've read all day.

I didnt say that crime does not occur where I live, but the violent crimes that are being referred to arent as common as many of you are making them out to be in the societies you are living in.

Let's see....I use them to hunt, shoot skeet, target practice, and to defend myself if necessary.

How old are you?

Im 21.

Now you can explain to me what significance that has.

Because you don't have enough life experiences to discuss the topic.

Are you married, have kids, own anything worth more than $2K that's easily portable, ever had the crap kicked out of you as an adult, ever had more than one person try to beat you up as an adult, have you had sex with more than 2 women?

You're inexperienced & you don't even know it, your posts about handling yourself in an assault are just flat stupid.

That is one of the most arrogant things I've ever seen written here in OT, and that's saying quite a lot.

I'll admit it, I think education, and income play a big part when it comes to gu ownership. I dont think it's an asinine statement at all.

How about this:
People post pictures and you tell if they are gun owners or not.

I'll start:
Pic1
Pic2

Am I a gun owner or not?
You got a 50/50 shot. No pun intended.

I'll say yes.

Pic3
How about now?
Still think I'm packing?

Nice to see you actually respond to one of my posts. See my earlier post where I logically pointed out that the frequency of the crime does not matter, just the smallest risk that it could. I don't get in accidents, but I still have car insurance. And not because the law requires me to, but for my own protection. A law-abiding citizen should own a gun and be trained in its use for the same reason.

Agreed.

When I go to the range I usually see persons of affluence. Every affluent person owns a gun? Every affluent person does not own a gun? Only people who are pleasant to look at own weapons? Only ugly people own guns?

Really? So people with graduate degrees, who are successful, and look good don't own firearms?

How old are you, where do you live, what do you do for a living?

You're an idiot if you think you can tell from education, career success, appearance, etc.

Honestly?

Yes, honestly. I'll be issued a Glock 22 .40 within the next couple months as I finish my training.


Whats your opinion on this?

On what, exactly? I haven't really been reading through the thread...
