Please help: what am I missing here? Piers versus Ben Shapiro [View all]
I've now had this video emailed to me 10 times. Evidently, it shows Shapiro winning the debate. What am I missing? The last question of the interview was devastating to Shapiro.
Help me. I live in reality and in a world of logic. I may be missing something here. I don't see how Piers "lost"--either in terms of debate or in, most especially, in terms of public opinion (again, Piers' last question was BRUTAL).
Thank you, DUers, especially those who may side with Shapiro ideologically.
I really am confused about how this could be a victory for gun advocates. This is a serious case of epistemic closure. I'll be honest, I couldn't really give a shit. I imagine we'll save some lives, etc., but mostly we'll just make ourselves feel like we're doing something. Great, whatever. I have 4 kids and no guns, because I've gambled a shitload and know when and when not the odds are against me. I always go with the odds. And I know that I'm derelict and lazy, so that means guns would be a clear and present danger in my house. Other than that, life is pretty absurd, and we can't stop death. yawn.
