[quote:9f6d5]Nice logic. When you get cornered, raped and beaten, tell me the same thing you fucking dolt.[/quote:9f6d5]
One, a "dolt" is probably the last term Id use to describe Coleman. Leader of an Arab sleeper cell; sure. Hand with explosives; quite possibly. Terrorist - oh you betcha. But "dolt" - hardly.
Two, who says a gun is the best mitigating factor for direct aggression against your particular person? There arent other methods an individual can use to protect themselves? The best answer is "lets arm everyone"? Because now you've gone from advising people they have the ability to purchase firearms, to "hey lets arm everyone, and hope noone - who we dont want to be victims - decides to have a fit of lovers rage or any other irrational emotion that causes them to start shooting the citizenry".
Do people have the right to protect themselves. Of course. But I'm not about to start advocating that people do so by dialing it all the way up to EXTREME. Im NOT for gun control by the way, because its a right and by god dont tread on me. . .but to suggest mass armament, and a culture of fear based on whos carrying what - no thanks.
