So. Go buy a gun. Enjoy.

A gun?

I want an assault rifle too. Honestly, at this point, semi-automatic is better than nothing.

Sure, I've considered buying a gun. But I'd get in trouble for it, would probably not be able to keep it a secret and yeah, you get the picture... it's not worth the legal risk at this moment.

I just want us all to have guns together, shoot at the range together. Kumbaja. Mutual respect. Why would it be special to want to have a weapon?

So, why do people hate you a777pilot? Are you a troll? Because you seem reasonable.

Seem reasonable?

LOL!

I don't think they "hate" me. That's a very strong word. I choose to believe that they just don't understand I am on these various forum sites to have fun.

Dear cybersage, I am sure you think you know what I am doing but in my opinion you are such an ordinary thinker you couldn't have a clue. Because I see things you can't imagine I operate in what is darkness for you. We have in our midst a drunk Swede who has a delusional fixation with the fact that he can't protect himself from phantoms. In this we are all the same. Nothing I can do will ever really protect me from the menace of the tomato worm but I can show him that we are the same. Somehow I manage to get up in the morning and face the world despite the fact that the tomato worm threat hangs over my head, and I don't normally need to discuss it with others. I was assured by a troll of great talent that I suffer from delusions and that I am not the center of the world, that I do not need to convince other fools that we are going to be eaten by tomato worms.

But I do find fools like you irritating, folk who feed the fires of madness calling it a capacity to think for himself with good advise refereed to as some pathetic fear that different thinking is evil. In the case we have before us the different thinking is as insane as my fear of tomato worms.

Not, legally, no. It would make me a criminal in an instant. If it ever was found out (or someone squealed) I'd be in a heap of trouble. And where would I practice shooting?

I don't even want to associate with criminals tbh.

🙁 You are actively making the darkness (which is completely of your own creation) deeper and deeper. You are only hurting yourself, though your inborn brain defect prevents you from seeing it.

Please listen to those who are trying to lead you out of your darkness and into the light. You cannot realize just how shriveled your life has become, but when you finally shed the blindness you are purposefully staying within, when you finally free yourself from your self imposed prison, you will see how much you have been missing. Your life will become full. You will learn what happiness is. You will experience joy.

Do not continue to deny yourself those things. It is sad.

Dude, if you want the elaborate on the tomato worm or even russel's teapot, that's cool and all and I would give my life for your right to do so.

Well, in all honestly, I might for cybrsage or a777pilot, but for you, not so much.

So anyway, my point is, please, expound on your tomato worm worries. But, please do so in another thread! I might even participate in it. If you pique my interest.

Bring your quasi-intellectual, pseudo-pretentious supposed insights (read nonsense) elsewhere. Ad hominem is fucking king.

This is about The Fall of the Republic. (I'm cliche as fuck and I haven't even seen it, should I? I expect he's a semi-shill. But, I don't give a damn, I like being entertained.)

Need another drink.

....and the follow up - why can't you legally buy a weapon?

Because the government doesn't trust me. (Because I'm part of the populace.)

Because things get frivolous and capricious as f once your liberties have been taking away (right to bear arms, free speech, etc.).

Perhaps, complete and utter darkness for a while, a considerable while, may teach future generations a thing or too. Yet, memory is fragile and easily manipulated.

I am the light, follow me to redemption. Did I mention I was God? No, I don't mean YHWH, I'm just trying to attention whore (pretty much), being exquisitely avant-garde. In fact, I'm pathetic in the grand scheme of things, I guess. I'm into guesswork, it's my things since I hate to commit.

...hmm... You've been given paperwork as a refusal of your right to own a weapon?

What are you talking about?

I'm not a hunter. I don't want to hunt. I want to be a citizen, not a civilian. (Starship Troopers rule. The book does too, although they don't have much in common and I thought the non-political stuff was weird.)

That's ok. Your Dutch friend probably thinks you don't have enough guns.

I don't know if I have any Dutch friends. It's not like I would notice it. A gene test might, but I'm not.

WTF is your point anyway?

I hope excessive swearing is OK, because it makes me seem pretty badass. (I'm just in the mood for it, but I like to project it on my being a total internet badass. Actually, I don't. FUCK IT. I'm submitting this now.)

so, who is preventing you from owning guns?

The last one proves you are not right in the head. It is an entry requirement for Marines you know...

Go NAVY!!!

I thought like 30% or so of Blacks were not eligible for military service (although, admittedly, the different military branches may have different requirements). Due to low IQ I mean. How many of Whites? I could calculate if there's interest.

However, standards are laxed when the need for cannon fodder is not.

So Sweden is FREE of guns and you want to bring it back. Foolish, America needs to do the same.
Click to expand...
Yes, America too, needs to bring back guns.

No, Sweden is not a gun-free country, all the criminals have guns, we have cop shootings, gang firing at police stations. It may not be common, but then we're a small country, but it happens.

Look, I could easily get a gun, if I wanted to associate with criminals. However, I'm not sure I do. And if anyone found it, I'd get in trouble of course. So, most people don't have guns. Except the criminals.

So what. I've got my guns. Go bitch at your government about it....

😀

Government doesn't give a damn, since they got the guns and I don't. They're quite happy with how things have turned out really. They have the gun. And a professional army (no longer national service either). They have their "war on guns" (akin to the "war on drugs"), I guess.

edit: I think I'll go sleep now, g'night. 🙂

Guess your Government is right.... Perhaps you should form a movement for gun ownership instead of blaming others countries for your lack of testicular fortitude...

Blaming other countries? Ultimately, it's entirely the fault of the Swedes, they should know better and not be as gullible.

No, I'm not blaming you. I'm warning you. Good night.
