? For the gun grabbers

The Earth could be invaded by Space Aliens tomorrow, but I doubt that will happen too.

You're such an asshole.

You post this link that shows half of all suicides are from guns, and the ones that aren't with guns are not nearly as successful as the ones that are with guns.

You read that too, didn't you? So now why are you coming back with this sophist bullshit? Simple: YOU DIDN'T WANT TO CONCEDE THE POINT.

You're so juvenile.
 
OK, so you're blaming mental illness for gun violence, but then saying that mental illness diagnosis is political.

So you're saying nothing, and wasting everyone's time.

The base is people who think they need a gun are mentally ill. They make their homes less safe. They also need a pile of them.` Golly, I need one to protect my home. That is why I have 15 including am AR.
 
Why do you have such an aversion to data? Facts? Anything more than your own opinion?

Though guns are not the most common method by which people attempt suicide, they are the most lethal. About 85 percent of suicide attempts with a firearm end in death. (Drug overdose, the most widely used method in suicide attempts, is fatal in less than 3 percent of cases.)

So...

Guns are 85% successful in suicide attempts, drug overdoses are 3% successful in suicide attempts.

Why do YOU have such an aversion to facts?
 
Only one of us opposes M4A, which would include free-at-the-point-of-care mental health for anyone....and that person who opposes universal mental health care sure as shit ain't me.
You must be a big girl to carry those goalposts up and down the field! Kudos! :thup:

Drama queens take pills. Real men eat a gun. You only care about the gun.

Mental illness has nothing to do with this.

It's a nice scapegoat for lazy people who don't want to talk about it.

Dutch Uncle thinks he can use it as a cudgel but he's the one who opposes Medicare-for-All, which would include mental health services for everyone and anyone.

LMAO!

What goalposts did I move?

You cry crocodile tears over mental health, you mock suicide victims, then oppose any effort to get mental health to everyone.

So I take it that this post of yours is your way of admitting that you're full of shit.

After all, you stupidly thought that if we took away guns, the same 25,000 who kill themselves with guns would instead kill themselves with, let's say, drug overdoses, except that only 3% of suicide attempts by drug overdoses are successful, which would mean that only 750 people would have died by suicide from drugs instead of 25,000 from guns.

And then, you refuse to expand mental health services to anyone and everyone while laughably trying to pretend that you give a shit about the mentally ill.
 
are you advocating violence?

That's hard to find in the particular post that you quoted, isn't it AssHat?

Look. Nifty, the hard line lefty, has been the biggest friend of firearms enthusiasts on this forum.

While the righties have done everything in their power to encourage an end run around the 2nd Amendment
with their demand for military type weapons and unregistered concealable handguns,

I've given them direction to reasonably preserve their 2nd Amendment rights.

If they want to lose their trap shooting over/unders, their hunting rifles, and their opportunity to have registered pistols for self-defense,
they need only continue their present course against my advice.
 
Owning or riding in a private car greatly increases your chances of getting killed. Is it time to ban all forms of private transportation to save over 35,000 lives per year?

That's three times the number of Americans murdered by all guns in 2019. My guess is that Democrats don't care about saving lives. They only care about exerting control.

The lame comparison between guns and cars is just that. Lame. Vehicles are a necessity in a modern society. They cease to function without them. Modern societies function quite nicely with minimal guns.
