Psycho criminals should go to THEIR houses!

If that 20% doesn’t want to own a gun, then don’t buy one!

Leave the other 80% alone (which they won’t).

Good post, dp0622!

I’ll just add that to fight a war with violence and illegality,
that can easily be won without using either...

Would not be very “Sun Tzu” of us.

And stupid.

In all fairness, according to the Standard Deviation Curve, the Bell-Shaped Curve, half of all Americans have below average mental health.

~17% of Americans fail at mental health. These are likely of the 20% who are terrified of guns either in general or because they fear using a gun to harm themselves or others.

For the most part they are phobic or neurotic, or both.

I agree that no-one should own a gun. You should have at least 3-5, for starters.

With lefties, that’s the catch. Situation ethics. Which is basically saying that morality is decided on a case by case basis, i.e. there are no consistent rights and wrongs that are always true regardless of who is doing it and when they are doing it.

Progressives determine morality to be whatever suits their agenda at any given time. Moral two years ago, immoral now & vice versa. The only consistency is that the current morality benefits them over others. Moral for them, immoral for others.

Like dealing with millions of Red Queens a la Lewis Carroll.

Bad headline. It implies that the other 80% of voters that are ignorant think owning a gun is moral.

It also seems to say that all voters are ignorant, with 20% of them saying guns are immoral.

Who cares what some college age blond airhead thinks? I’ve got baseball caps older than that.

Well, 20% of me, in addition to the other 80% of me, thinks that gun control is immoral, if not outright evil. So, I guess we’re even.

In a healthy society, morals are absolutes based on some higher authority -- usually a deity of some kind. If nothing else, venerable tradition. In a sick -- that is to say liberal -- society, morals are based on what liberals say they are.

In other words, liberals appoint themselves as the gods -- the deities -- of the society, and their judgment, or more accurately, their self-serving whims, create the "morality" on which their paltry civilizations rest.

Bless Thee, BRB. My selection is deficient in the Semiauto Rifle department. I will try to remedy that situation soon.

The word "liberal" was stolen from classical liberals. It was based on freedom from coercion in a political sense.

Progressive is a more correct term, because their philosophy has been expounded in numerous texts. It is fairly easy to find out.

You are exactly correct, however, that Progressives see themselves as god on earth. One of the foundations of the philosophy is there is no God, or at least, God does not care about what humans do.

Hi.

“Gun control” is not about safety, it’s about control.

Kind of makes you realize just how much vote fraud is going on to win so many elections.
