28. prove or retract
Wed May 2, 2012, 03:50 PM
May 2012

You can't prove your false statement, because it is false. So I suggest you just retract, now.

It is a false statement about an elected Democrat, potentially damaging to the Democratic Party, posted at Democratic Underground. Quelle surprise: in the Guns forum.

But take your best shot, if you like.


btw -- I find it amusing that a large majority of regular posters in this forum know as well as I do that your statement is false, but every time it is made (and trust me, that's been a lot of times), I am the one who says so ...

So how many bullets do you think you need for self-defense, if that is what you will use gun for? Hoyt May 2012 #23
I don't know in advance, which is why it's better to have more rather than less. Johnny Rico May 2012 #24
you really just never do know, do you? iverglas May 2012 #30
No one ever knows in advance how many shots they'll need to fire in self-defense. Johnny Rico May 2012 #31
After all, the situation can't be predicted ahead of time Glaug-Eldare May 2012 #32
Exactly so. Given the choice, why would I defend myself with anything less than the most effective Johnny Rico May 2012 #33
That's why I have a rifle, shotgun and handgun with me at all times. Kaleva May 2012 #34

So we share a view on the gun-control lobby. n/t krispos42 May 2012 #20
Yes, Hoyt, that's exactly what the pro-control crowd is. Thanks for saying it. HALO141 May 2012 #21
Looks like a Freudian slip to me, but I do agree slackmaster May 2012 #27
I'm bookmarking this thread for that post alone. friendly_iconoclast May 2012 #49
Damn, surely you have better stuff to do than that and playing with your guns. Hoyt May 2012 #53
...and once again, you've forgotten that I don't own any guns. friendly_iconoclast May 2012 #55
In Hoyt's defense, this board would be a lot duller without him! Glaug-Eldare May 2012 #56
Also what happens when you get people like Hoyt calling up and yammering for gun control... Atypical Liberal May 2012 #77
