Yeah see, you are even against safety. pwb Dec 2021 #10
How is emphasizing the need for the 4 rules of gun safety against safety? Dial H For Hero Dec 2021 #11
I would walk out if someone suggested a round in the chamber. pwb Dec 2021 #12
Given that, there would be no point in you attending such a class, given that they almost Dial H For Hero Dec 2021 #13

The use of weapons in combat and the use of firearms in legal self defense have some overlap, but Dial H For Hero Dec 2021 #19
So why do you think that makes you special? oneshooter Dec 2021 #33
Who said I was special? You did. pwb Dec 2021 #39
Never said that you were "special". oneshooter Dec 2021 #40
And you think you are? pwb Dec 2021 #41
Never said or claimed that I was. oneshooter Dec 2021 #47

You assumed that I thought I was special. You said pwb Dec 2021 #49
I actually recommended that you *not* take firearms self defense lessons, if you'll recall. Dial H For Hero Dec 2021 #42
I don't need your recommendations. Thank you. pwb Dec 2021 #43
Just trying to help! Dial H For Hero Dec 2021 #44
I am just not ready for War a home. pwb Dec 2021 #45
Neither am I. War and legitimate self defense are two very different things. Dial H For Hero Dec 2021 #46

Here's a good debate about that topic. PTWB Dec 2021 #25
There's a legitimate debate to be had, but labeling anyone "irresponsible" and "unsafe" because they Dial H For Hero Dec 2021 #26
Certainly absurd. PTWB Dec 2021 #51
Would you please answer the question. oneshooter Dec 2021 #32

It has only important thing you want. Good bye. AndyS Dec 2021 #17
Have a good one bud. PTWB Dec 2021 #18
I actually have come up with what I (humbly) think would be a reasonable compromise. Dial H For Hero Dec 2021 #21
I don't think anyone could argue against that. PTWB Dec 2021 #23
Thank you, but I'm confident that they can and will. The moment "assault weapons" are mentioned, Dial H For Hero Dec 2021 #27
Gunowners will not agree with ANY of this. EOM oneshooter Dec 2021 #35

Nonsense. PTWB Dec 2021 #24
