"Where did the concept of "need" enter this conversation?" I've been talking about what's necessary. This has been enjoyable, but this discussion doesn't seem to be going anywhere so

Look this has been fun, but it doesn't seem to be going anywhere so long as you aren't taking into account what I'm saying, and keep re-defining what my argument is to derail the point. I apologize if

"You, on the other hand, brought up the subject by Rhetorically asking why people need to listen to the media to validate their fear of killing machines." I didn't say anything about validating

"25% of those killed are pedestrians, they didn't even agree to take the risk of driving." They took the risk of going near cars. Again cars have a good reason to be owned by civilians and they

You are strawmaning me by repeatedly ascribing views I don't hold to my arguments as if I'm the one derailing the argument. "...the only thing that matters is that you didn't talk about people..."

I am unable to watch that video due to repeated loading failure. I tried many times in different ways at different times and it always fails to load. Do you have any idea why?

Of the 3, two are from my late grandfather which haven't been used by me, and were used for target practice by the retired marine and my father. The other is my supersonic air-soft rifle, which I have

Your statistic is impertinent since I am not talking exclusively about accidental gun death. I'm slightly afraid being "on the road" for that reason. However, cars are not made to kill, yet guns

"The real strawman is your switching the subject from people fearing killing machines, to people fearing people WITH killing machines." Where was the subject switched? I have been talking about

Well, I'm glad it's being done on the right road.

How a gun ensures protection, at least with the threat of severe injury, at most with death. If when you accidentally use something and someone in it's way is killed or injured, I wouldn't call it safe.

Well, considering that I live with 3 guns, I think we can rule out the idea that I'm any more afraid of guns than you are. My point is, it isn't possible to make necessary use a gun without killing, injuring,

So are you saying it's inappropriate to portray guns a killing machines? Tell me, how does one use a gun without being violent? Also, how am I not around guns IRL when there are three in my house?

Ah, you think I fear guns, what a delightful strawman. To say that one or the other is the problem would be like saying that overpopulation is the result of too much sex or not enough birth control. Just

A car is used for transport, a knife is used for cutting, and a gun is used for...?

Some of these suck, and that's weird since others resonate. In my opinion...

The are memes, not GIFs...

The "You are wrong..." comment was directed towards the maker of the video. The other is at @superdavey

In order for a fear to be irrational, it either has to be unfounded, or based on something false. The fear of guns is based on the fact that guns are machines designed for the soul purpose of killing.
