I love watching hoplosexuals trying to pretend this isn't one of their memes.

Isn't that poster what they call a circular argument?

I'm saying that Ohannessian (or people like him) could have called the cops and reported the loud party, instead of waving a weapon at a couple of drunks and threatening to shoot the [...] out of them.

I don't see the NRA taking these things down...and isn't that their late figurehead brandishing a firearm over the rationale for the Second Amendment?

It seems Trump-supporting hoplosexuals want to conveniently forget that they advocate killing government employees when they think they're being "tyrannized".

That's what Micah Johnson did.

So Micah Johnson should be a hero to Trump-supporting hoplosexuals!

Not too many people will disagree with you on that, myself included. I don't want to someone waving a gun around me for no reason. But doesn't really have anything to do with the core issue of gun ownership.

No, irresponsible/criminal behavior by gun owners has nothing to do with gun ownership. :rolleyes:

My point is that anyone can snap, which apparently he did. And the more access an angry person has to guns, the more likely he is to use them.

The huge majority of gun owners, law abiding gun owners, do not use their weapons in malice, unlike the criminals. Study by the CDC and the Congressional Research Service proves categorically that while the numbers of firearms went up 56% gun violence went down by 49%; and you want to violate the 2nd amendment and infringe on "the people have a right to keep and bear arms"? Not a very smart idea.

You mean those men who advanced on his property were not charged? Shame!

I did not see them advance on his property. I saw them by a car in the street, I saw him cross the side walk moving towards them. Perhaps you saw something different? I did say I didn't know what occurred before the video I witnessed.

It's not about using guns with premeditated malice, but anger and impulsiveness. Waving a gun and threatening people over a noisy party makes no sense. The bonehead could have killed someone, on purpose or accidentally, and then spent years in prison asking himself "what was I thinking?"
