Sure, why not … just like you are getting in as many anti-gun posts as possible.

I explained my position about real names several times, but having eluded your poor powers of perception, you continue to harp on and on about that. I indicated that I have nothing to hide from you. Since it is so important to you,I suggested a meet and greet lunch where I am willing to provide you with the opportunity to know my real name up close and personal like verified with pictured ID. I also suggested that others on both sides of the gun control debate, who have participated in your voluminous gun-grabbing threads, would be welcome. Aren't you curious who your friends and foes are?

The only one with something to hide here is you. You are hiding behind a keyboard. Why have you not taken me up on my offer? Cowardice comes to mind.

Bob, guns DO NOT kill. People kill ... an elementary concept that exceeds your grasp. If guns kill, then it follows that guns should be arrested, charged, tried, convicted, and sentenced. Ridiculous you say? Well yes, just as ridiculous as the statement that guns kill. Regurgitating that mantra is a logical fallacy know as Argumentum ad nauseum (argument to the point of disgust, by repetition), or trying to prove something by repeating it over and over again, but no matter how many times something is repeated something, it will not become any more true then when first uttered.

Common sense dictates that an inanimate object is not accountable for a crime. Homicide is a behavior ... not a device. If guns kill people, then pencils misspell words, matches cause arson, eating utensils make people fat, and cameras and camcorders are responsible for pornography. I find it most peculiar that Bob demonizes the gun.

Bob find yourself a new hobby that you can excel at because debating firearms issues is definitely not your forte.

The lunch offer remains open.

Nate G, most reposted newspaper articles merely report shooting incidents. The purpose of reposting of such articles is sensationalism and intended as an emotional appeal ... NOT a credible argument. The CDC data is dated ... so? I NAMED the sources (National Self Defense Survey, World Wide Gun Defense Clock, FBI, Bureau of Justice Statistics & National Crime Victims Survey and the White House commissioned report entitled Priorities for Research to Reduce the Threat of Firearm-related Violence) form which the text provided was excerpted. I would have complied and provided you with links had you not been so insulting, but that isn't going to happen now, so don't ask me ... ask Google..

Okay moderator. I'll respectfully create a fake account so that I can go and bother people about real issues. How about this I'll trade you. Kick me off and kick that person off. Take the time take one minute and go back and read and you'll see that this is a fake profile. Go look at what else they post they're always bothering somebody. I can exit stage left from a forum. doesn't bother me. I'm too busy for this. I thought this was a very good resource for the community. Take it away Tim it's all yours.
