You can’t ban human nature

That is one seriously dumbass meme. Got anything better?

I guess you don’t get humor either.

Splitting hairs. What is the job of law enforcement but to protect the innocent by stopping the assailant

That isn't the job of law enforcement and isn't even responsive to my post.

Which encourages people to use violence.

They started it.

The job of law enforcement is to clean up the bodies, investigate the crime and hopefully arrest somebody.

There is no duty to protect the innocent. Look up Warren v DC.

Warren v. District of Columbia - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

Also Town of Castle Rock v Gonzalez.

Which encourages people to use violence.

I guess we could prosecute people for defending themselves against criminals like they do in the UK. Of course, we decided we didn’t want that shit 250 years ago.

But they are not legal and for good reason. Why is that?

They're still legal in mommy-state Europe. If they're legal in Europe, they can't be that dangerous.

They are not nearly as dangerous as guns are if that is what you mean.

They were marketed as a toy for children. Guns aren't.

However, lawn darts are not illegal. You can make your own, you can buy kits. You can buy a vintage set.

SO glad you posted a video of a 5'7" 130 lb actor whose only competitive fight was probably in high school!
Just shows how divorced from reality anti-gun liberals are. Bet you think Steven Seagal is some sort of elite martial artist, too! Should have gone with that: at least Seagal is tall and weighs a lot.


Oh, while we're here, here's some research material for you in case you need something for a thread on gun battles:

Guns aren't dangerous at all mine just sit there they don't do anything.

 

[Spock]

Actually there is an entire toy industry that promotes children's guns.

However, lawn darts are not illegal. You can make your own, you can buy kits. You can buy a vintage set.

Same for firearms- not illegal, make your own, buy a vintage set. What is your point?
Are you trying to argue that lawn darts are less dangerous than firearms?

 

[RF667799]

So? Is that what was being discussed? How about paint guns? Were they being discussed?

Calm down and read the words I wrote.

 

[The Brad Dad]

Yeah that's what weapons are.

Good, so we're in agreement.

 

[The Brad Dad]

This is why anybody using statistics is probably being dishonest.

You know your side has the best argument when they insist any stats being used are dishonest.

 

[The Brad Dad]

Then stop fantasizing and start looking at actual cases like the one I posted.

Virtually all men who own guns are under the belief that at some point in their lives they'll be called on to be an action hero. As we can't even successfully engage in military strikes anymore. do you think the average American male has what it takes to be a successful action hero?

You're just making up all that. It might be projection. If you really believe it, you're claiming to have supernatural powers.

 

[The Brad Dad]

And we’ve established guns purpose isn’t violence.

And as we know, guns purpose isn’t violence. It’s why they are so very rarely used for violence.

Oh, WE established you didn't know what you were talking about. You missed the meeting - sorry! Guns' only purpose is violence.

 

[RF667799]

How did you come to that conclusion?

I don't need any, I talk to Republicans about their violence-makers and all I hear back is about that one time at band camp when they'll take down the looters or whatever. Pure male fantasizing. It's just sad that the guy equivalent to going to a prom and looking pretty or whatever is slaughtering people with one of these things.

You didn't interview all the Democrat gun owners?

 

[The Brad Dad]

The Democratic gun owners I know don't fetishize their weapons like Republicans do. It's not democratic lawmakers forcing their kids to hold ar-15's for Christmas cards. It's bad enough guns' only purpose is violence, we have a whole party dedicated to worshiping them. IT's a little off putting.

 

[RF667799]

There was only one conclusion in your post. "Guns' only purpose is violence."

So you were lying when you applied your claim to "virtually all men".
