148. happy to spell it out

I have been a victim of misogynistic violence.

Scout has been a victim of misogynistic violence.

You and your ilk persistently exploit the victimization of women in the service of your own agenda, which Scout and I and large numbers of women consider to be abhorrent, and specifically to be contrary to the interests of victimized women with effects that are a not insignificant contributor to the victimization of women.

That's what OUR EXPERIENCES have to do with the discussion here -- which is NOT about the women in the OP, it is about the possession and use of firearms. Someone just decided that the women in the OP could be productively used as means to their own end in that regard.

If anyone here genuinely cared about the victimization of women, you would all be engaging in serious discussion about the very real contribution of firearms possession to that problem. You aren't, never have, never will.

Now, I think you understood all this very well, but anytime you need a refresher course, you let me know.
