Recently, got into a brief exchange with an antigunner on another forum. Thought I'd share it with you.
I was answering a post about someone who had their house ransacked and robbed. My initial response post follows, then the exchange:
Laz: "I sure hope they don't try me. I seldom leave and have a terrific aim. Gosh, that would be awful if I ended up shooting a bunch of them as they broke in. That would really mess with my head."
Antigunner: "Ammosexuals always want to shoot up the neighborhood. Besides, they probably knew he was gone. Hope it works out for him, and they catch the culprits."
Laz: "Couple of points:
First: You Hoplophobes have it 180 degrees out of phase. We Ammosexuals do NOT want to 'shoot up the neighborhood'. Thus, such things as Rule 4 of Firearms Safety: "BE SURE OF YOUR TARGET AND WHAT’S BEYOND IT"
Doesn't sound much like someone who wants to 'shoot up the neighborhood', does it?
Second: While it may sound like I am sarcastic in my original post, in some parts I am absolutely not. I've done enough reading to know that any time you take a human life, it really does mess with your head. Soldiers, police, and civilians who need to take a life have adverse effects for extended periods of time, often permanently. Humans are not hardwired to kill other humans.
So, for me, firearms ownership is a lot like having fire insurance on my house: I'm hoping to never need to use it, but I will be glad it's there if it's necessary.
However, for you to start your response with what you perceive is a denigration -- Ammosexuals -- tells me that my reasoned response will fall on deaf ears. Ergo, I do not write it for you, but for others who chance upon our exchange."
I am a PROUD AMMOSEXUAL!
You should have shot him. :) j/k
I have quite a few ammosexual magazines. Mostly double stacked.
Revealing that the liberal claims that Americans want to “shoot up the neighborhood.” It shows how silly their thought process is.
That was my first thought, too!!
Great minds and all that... :)
Nah, just his neighborhood. 😂
If they weren’t so hypocritical and of no standards (except double standards), they would find ‘ammosexual’ a sexist term (think ‘Freudian’).
Stands to reason:
I really DO enjoy chambering a round (and the obligatory climax).
;-)
Ammosexual? I guess I am, too.
I’m good with either. :)
My sexual orientation is ‘ammosexual questioning’. At my age, I am probably leaning towards asexual. My gender is MAGA and my pronoun is ‘Fvck Biden’. I compel everyone to recognize my gender and use my pronoun. I’ll back that up with the use of my gun.
We should push for an Ammosexual Bill of Rights! No discrimination!
Ammosexual Pride Day!
Ammosexuals grooming kids in schools!
The works!
Quite the straw man there, substituting “shoot up the neighborhood” when the targets are actually “violent home invasion robbers robbing you inside your own home”. You’re right, someone so dishonest as to use that straw man can’t possibly be reasoned with.
Amen nothing turns a robbers check engine light like when they see you have a gun.
I just can’t read those types of magazines.
Me, I’m Bi-ammosexual. I like revolvers AND semiauto pistols!
I’m in the mood for a parade to let it all hang out!
Yeah, I wrote that for others that come across the exchange.
I think it particularly important to mention the psychological damage that comes post-shooting. Many gun enthusiasts think there will be no complications after a defensive shooting. I've done enough reading to know that there most definitely WILL BE.
I think it shows what would go through their minds and why they don’t own firearms. They know deep down inside that they are dangerous killers. All of their virtue signalling is meant to cover that up.
So basically, if it shoots you’re happy. It really doesn’t matter what makes it go off.
