i posted this facebook "status" earlier today:

:::To any of my anti gun friends who have yet to block me:::

This weekend, I plan to do some target shooting at the gun range that i am a member of. If you would like to get a chance to come and see, handle, shoot, and learn about "assault rifles" and semi-automatics, or just guns in general, please send me a message. No politics and no arguments, just a quick lesson in firearms safety and handling, and a demonstration of what makes us "gun nuts" tick. Maybe you will find that you actually like what you fear and want to learn more, maybe it will reaffirm your belief that these firearms have no place in our society. Either way, i will let you judge for yourself, but at least you will have an opportunity to educate yourself on the subject instead of basing your opinion on raw emotions.

PS: Any ammo you shoot is on me.

Message/text/call me.

You need to Seriously get over guns lunatic, theres no need to have more then a small handgun if you want to "protect yourself" as you all claim your excuse is

its a hobby dude, kind of like people who build race cars (i do that also) i was raised with guns my whole life. my guns have never hurt anybody nor will they. its not all about protecting myself, i can do that without a gun. i find your statement that all i need is a small handgun funny, so your implying that assault rifles should be banned but not small handguns? for your information, small handguns are used for the great majority of gun crimes in the US, only 323 people were killed with rifles in the US last year, care to know how many were killed by handguns?

Im talking about high powered quick firing rifles with large bullets dont play ****ing dumb i dont see people shooting up a school or mall or theater with a single 10 magazine handgun

your clearly very uneducated on the subject, which the vast majority of people like you are. are you playing dumb? AR15's actually fire a very small bullet, smaller than every deer hunting rifle in connecticut actually, and they only fire one bullet per pull of the trigger. the AR15's bullet is .233" diameter, which is small when compared to the state of connecticut's smallest legal rifle bullet for deer hunting, which is .243". should we ban hunting rifles with large bullets? some hunting rifles have bullets up to 1/2"? they are clearly more dangerous no?
as for your statement that people dont shoot up a school or mall or theater with a single 10 round handgun, i think the numbers prove otherwise. according to the FBI, handguns killed 6,220 people in the US last year, as opposed to 323 killed by rifles, not all of which were "assault rifles". so your argument is really quite stupid and emotion based.

Ok well how about screw yourself you gun loving psycho theres no reason to own a high powered assault rifle for any reason at all, Why do you need guns like that, you dont
And i am educated but educated or not i could care less on weapons a gun is a gun so i could care less about caliber or any of that bullshit there weapons bottom line

frustrating arguing with someone who uses facts to base argument upon isnt it? you should take the time to educate yourself and maybe you will be able to formulate a better argument someday in the future.
do you like cars matt? most guys do. ever dream of owning a ferrari, Z06 corvette or a mustang gt500? those cars make exorbitant amounts of horsepower to be driven on our public roadways dont you agree? surely one doesnt NEED 500hp to go 65mph on the highway right? are people who buy these cars and drive them respectfully psychos to you matt?

Wow talk about educated you compare a fast car to a firearm? Wow you are ****ing stupid just shut the **** up you republican right wing a**h*** and get over yourself guns kill AND people kill and if you need an assault rifle to compensate for something then you need to grow up and get out of playing army with your little 5 yr olds buddies

7:58pm
Sam Winters
matt im really starting to think that you cannot be serious... what is the difference between a fast car and a firearm? are they not both tools that should only be put in the hands of a responsible operator? are they not both inanimate objects that cannot do any harm anyone without said operator?
so far you have yet to make any fact based/intelligent argument, you are just spewing rhetoric that really makes no sense. are you compensating for your lack of intelligence and tact by name calling and spouting off stuff like "guns kill AND people kill" or are you just ****ing with me?
by the way i take offense to you calling me a republican, i am much smarter than that haha.






no reply yet... how'd i do???
 
Sam, incoming FR on there. And if you ever make it up here I'll buy you a few beers. [thumbsup]. Like I keep saying, gun grabbers are dangerous and they are extremely unfamiliar with both guns and the psychological term, "projection".
 
Great job. I wouldn't have been able to keep my composure. Goes to show insults are no match for education
 
Yeah, I'm dealing with the same shit after sharing a GOAL status and "The Truth About Assault Weapons"

You just can't argue with these idiots, although another friend is trying. They have their mind made up and will not let facts or logic get in the way of pushing their agenda on everyone. Also, friend request sent.

Wow, Sam seems to be getting popular on FB, friend request sent!

I know you say you're not friends with him on fb but do you actually know this guy?

no, he's friends with my buddy they must have gone to college together. my real friend commented on my status and it must have come up on this tool's newsfeed
 
I had a very similar conversation. Scarily similar. After the first couple exchanges where I was calm and reasoned and the other guy was raving and gibbering, I gave up. I told him I could not continue the conversation because our opinions were clearly too far apart to be bridged (I didn't tell him he sounded like a nut). He kept going and my last post to him was, "Sorry, I'm out of this one".

I am very surprised by the complete and total lack of comprehension on these peoples part and the RAVING!

defeating their entire argument is all too easy if you just stick to the facts and dont let yourself fall into their emotion based reaction BS.
 
That was well done. I don't know how you stayed so composed. I'm at the point I just want to go off on the anti I get into a debate with. It's soooo tiring trying to get these people to listen to facts. I'd like to give up but that won't help our cause so you just bite your tongue and try to spread some truth.
