Why would you want to try. a car is a car and a gun is a gun. They don't
look nor act the same, nor are they decendant of an originating species
. Well, mostly they,re made of metal.

I have a 22' boat if you want to compare it to a garage....



Whoosh. For many years those opposed to reasonable firearms control used
to tout the statistic that more people in this country were killed in car
accidents than by firearms, and yada, yada, yada. Well, apparently that
statistic is or is about to change, that more people are being killed by
firearms than in car accidents.


Maybe they should admit the War on Drugs is failed.

Whoosh is right. We've been saying it's a bogus comparison for years,
but the stats have now made that bogus comparison obsolete.

The comparison of auto deaths to firearms deaths has always been stupid
and specious, but it's been offered up here for years.

Harry, there is certainly no one here who knows stupid
and specious better than you, coupled with just a dash of serious
hypocrisy.

Just read the posts from Ditzy Dan Kruger or even our Sheriff John

You have to ask...just what are they so afraid of?


It's pretty obvious Herring is afraid of people of color, latinos,
women, et cetera. Ditzy Dan is filtered out here, so I don't know what
he fears but I recall from second hand posts that he was buying or
bought a huge caliber pistol, so I suspect he is compensating for a
really small dick.


How about your gun loony behavior. Explain that.


No ****. Wonder how Don puts up with Harry's arsenal?
