I noticed in all your posts that have to do with firearms, you are always talking about other countries and how they do things, especially the UK. Perhaps one of those other countries, like the UK, would be better suited for you since you seem to live them so much.

That seems to be the case for you too

Do you need me to invite you to leave for somewhere with gun laws that align with your preferences too?

Or can we just all agree that there's value in seeking to improve where we live, and that the "if you don't like it you can leave" mentality is pretty meaningless?

I will agree there is value in seeking improvement where you live, what I do not agree with is my rights being stripped away because of what happened in other places by insane people and that there is a slim (very slim) possibility of MAYBE happening here because nothing is absolute. Have you read the wording of the AWB they are proposing? Do you know anything about firearms? If you did you would understand why this or clearly overreach by politicians who want to pass “feel good” laws. On a side note, I am not your enemy, they politicians are. This is exactly how they want us, divided and at each others throats.

Huh? You are arguing against so many things I have never said. My comment you're replying to is affirming your right to have your own opinions and work to make the state what you want it to be, even if that's different from someone else's wishes.

> This is exactly how they want us, divided and at each others throats.

You seem to be succumbing to that in the very comment you're calling it out in. Look at it...I said let's all agree that we can have differing opinions and stop telling everyone to leave, then you spiral into a mountain of assumptions about me stripping your rights, that I don't know anything about guns, and how politicians are the enemy.

I’ve noticed that less educated, lower intellect individuals with a minimum of worldly experience tend to be resentful of the notion that they can learn from other places and people who are different from them and do certain things better.

The world is full of such small-minded places, commonly referred to as “underdeveloped.”

I’d like to avoid seeing my state and country continue to backslide towards underdeveloped status when we have potential to be much greater.

Therefore, if another country has a better way to build a car, or a smarter health delivery system, or a better design for transit systems, or a system that has largely eliminated gun violence, I choose to learn from them rather than stew in parochial ignorance.

You should try it!

Sure, how about we start with a license to watch tv, like the UK has? Or, we could require federal registration and licensing of computers, licenses to be able to post and reply to things online, and we could also limit how many posts you can make, all to try and prevent cyber bullying. That would be better way wouldn’t it?

If you can make your argument with some actual statistics, I won’t stop you.

That’s the beauty of critical thinking.

But I warn you, it will require thinking.

Ah yes, I see this is the second time you have slyly insulted my intelligence, without even knowing anything about me which I have not done to you. That is ok though, I’ll go ahead and do it now and say that just shows the kind of person you are. Good banter though, I do enjoy it.

Well, I mean your prior two posts insulted the intelligence of every reader, so…
