I expect to be held no more or less accountable for my actions than anyone else. If I didn't shoot you, I am not responsible for your being shot. I never agreed to be the world's patient, doting babysitter.
And your reasoning is something more substantial than an aversion to confronting the problem of shitty people in the world?
Lock up your guns you fucking shithead I say this as a guy who supports gun ownership, not a ban guns guy
Connect those dots. Paint me a picture to illustrate how I somehow became the only living being capable of controlling his actions.
That you can't put in the literal least amount of work it takes to be a responsible gun owner tells me it's a damn shame people like you have access to firearms and do nothing but make responsible gun owners look bad Is it laziness or are you just an irresponsible person in general?
I think, I know I am only responsible for what I control, and I can only control myself. If some shitbag hotwires my vehicle and runs over a bunch of kids on the way to school, am I to blame for not locking it in a vault? Now look up how many more people are killed by cars versus guns, and admit your irrational bias against guns is based on nothing more than them being more effective at soiling your frilly man panties.
"accountable". You keep using that word... so you want to have guns, but not be responsible for their being effectively secured or what happens from your negligence.
no. but if you leave the keys in it and the engine running and soem five year old climbs in and puts it in gear, well...
Or maybe not everyone can afford a fucking thousand dollar gun safe? Or maybe I don't accept burdens for other peoples' shortcomings? No, it must be that I'm neglecting some imaginary obligation to protect society from itself.
Did I shoot someone, yes or no? That is the one and only measure of my accountability to this subject.
Cars should be outlawed, I agree. But as society is based on personal transportation it will take time. Guns serve no purpose other than inflating the owner's ego. You'd never notice a difference.
You would have to be both completely irrational and ignorant of the subject to make a claim like that.
as compared to: which is more realistic? Ignitions aren't nearly as simple as they were 30 years ago.
hey... I'm radical left and I want part of that billion plus my city spends on cop salaries to go to trained crisis intervention workers who'd take point on mental health calls.
One more huge fucking reason why how I prepare for defense will never be subject for anyone else to approve. Sending someone out for goddamn hug therapy when some nutbag flips his shit.
oh... and maybe actual meaningful skills training (vocational and life) for post release. a functioning probationary system that qualifies pardons, and yeah, well regulated civil defense.
Yep, let the degenerate miscreants out of prison where they couldn't hurt anyone, then tell me again how I am the danger to society.
Wayfair (lol) has gun safes for $400 CAD which is like $300 USD. I'm sure there's even better deals on craigslist So there goes the "But I'm a deadbeat!" argument Your other, frankly, made up positions don't really even make any sense, the root of it is you're unwilling to put in the slightest amount of effort to ensure your safety and the safety of others. You're like a teenager that thinks he knows everything and doesn't fully understand the burden of responsibility that adults carry You complain about the anti gun nuts yet you do nothing but give them reason to complain
of course, you're not gonna share what it is so I can prove if/how impractical "hot wiring" it would be... no matter, as it's still the less likely scenario.
