Reply #49: what colour is orange -- true or false?

[iverglas]

C'mon -- which is it?? True ... or false?

Of course, "If you don't have the answer... it's ok to say so."

But of course, the point always was, and still is --

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=118&topic_id=78913&mesg_id=78934&page=

-- that the question was plainly asked in a fit of diversionary grooming, to avoid addressing the facts raised in the thread in which the diversionary groomer in question chose of his/her own volition to post.

That's the actual subject of the thread: "Gun shootings in Detroit skyrocket, in spite of what the NRA promised us".

Fescue4u for some reason wanted the person who started the thread to tell him/her the answer to: "How many of those Shootings were done by CCW'ers?"

Who cares? If Fescue4u does, it would seem that he needs to look elsewhere for his answer.

Looking at me just isn't going to get him any further than looking at me for an answer to "Who's buried in Grant's Tomb?"

I don't know, and I don't give a shit. And I never gave any indication that I either knew or gave a shit. Any more than the person who wrote the initial post did.

Maybe you can help Fescue4u out with the question that is obviously burning a hole in his fingers. In fact, I think you oughta. There seems to be some kind of duty on anyone who posts in this thread to answer that question, so you'd better have at it. Just don't expect me to be caring about the answer.


Meanwhile ... won't someone tell us why the number of shootings didn't plummet when people got permission to tote guns around in their pants, and started doing it?

I think that was the actual question that the honest and reasonably intelligent person would have taken from the first post. And yet no one has answered it yet.

Of course, "If you don't have the answer... it's ok to say so."

And it's also perfectly okay to say you don't give a shit.
