A friend of mine, who happens to be a therapist of the mental kind, suggested that antis want gun control because they don't trust themselves with guns. The train of thought goes that they don't trust us with guns because they don't trust themselves.
Idk, he has seen a lot of these moonbats & head cases up close so I kind defer to him a certain amount.
Then the argument should be made the immature, ignorant, incompetent people - have no place in "modern society". They need to have their rights restricted for the "good of society".
One of my coworkers was relating to me yesterday how he got into it with this woman who we work with about healthcare costs. Apparently she's a flaming liberal - which isn't a big surprise seeing as how she's apparently a belligerent lesbian (head of multiple "lesbian rights groups" and so forth) - as well as being fat and ugly. I don't talk to her - but apparently he does. Anyway - he told me she and him got into it one day over the cost of blood tests - because he ended up paying thru the nose while he knew somebody else that got a subsidized rate. Lesbian's argument was: " People who make more money need to subsidize 'the less fortunate for the good of society' ".
I told him that he ****ed up - because he totally blew a chance to totally argue her down and piss her off over that comment. First he should have made her reinforce her position openly and clearly - again. Then he should have told her " Excellent - well I sort of agree with that position, people should be forced to do things "for society" - by the government. For example - people who are overweight should be FORCED TO LOSE WEIGHT. First off you're eating too much food and taking food from the mouths of starving children , secondly it's a health problem and you're costing society more money in health care, thirdly your weight creates more pollution because you're car gets worse gas mileage, etc - I could go on - but I'm agreeing with you - people need to be FORCED to do things because of "society" ".
I'm pretty sure that would have completely pissed her off.
