You made up a lot of stuff there. You are grasping because you don't want to own your shameful behavior. Base your comments on what I actually said and on reality.

[–] [email protected] -3 points 1 year ago (24 children)

I based my comment on exactly what you said. I'm not going to fall for your awkward emotional manipulation, so save it for your family.

[–] magnusrufus 2 points 1 year ago (23 children)

No you made up my big rubber stamp and all that. You tried to lay the blame for black children being shot in the face on minorities having guns. You can bring up whatever other topics you want but it doesn't change that you said something really shitty and that I called you on it. Anything else is your addition and distraction.

You supporting gun ownership means you support it for the people who want minorities murdered. You're supporting things that make your life more dangerous, not less.

[–] bi_tux 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Even tho they never said, that they support gun ownership. No one said that they support no gun controll.

[–] WindInTrees 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Gun control for who, and in what circumstances? How would that be better than simply banning them?

[–] bi_tux 1 points 1 year ago

Gun control for who

Minors and known terrorists for example.

and in what circumstances?

Things that should be obvios like don't give your kids guns, or don't randomly start shooting in public.

Ofc it would be better than a complete gun ban. And I hate to say this, but as long as we have a goverment it's the goverment's job to make gun policies.

Where did I say I supported gun ownership? Do I get to make things up about you too?

[–] WindInTrees 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's pretty clear from your comments that you do support it. Why are you trying to hide that now?

[–] magnusrufus 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm all for massive gun control reform. I'm also all for minorities being allowed to arm themselves since they are being hunted down by white supremacists just for going to the store. I'm for calling out assholes that tell minorities that they are the reason black kids get shot in the face.

I'm for calling out assholes that tell minorities that they are the reason black kids get shot in the face.

That's a very disingenuous way of casting the argument. It has nothing to do with minorities, only with gun owners and supporters of gun ownership in general, regardless of race.

[–] magnusrufus 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No it's not disingenuous. Bi_tux is a minority. Agitator told him that he's the reason black kids get shot in the face. Bi_tux needs a gun in response to the hostility and violence of bigots. Ignoring bi_tux's minority status and original statement because it's inconvenient is kinda disingenuous though.

Bi_tux (or any other minorities) having guns or not isn't the cause of bigots shooting black kids in the face for ringing a doorbell.

[–] WindInTrees 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes, actually, it is. You either support gun rights and gun ownership or you don't. If you do, you contribute to kids getting shot in the face. Minority status is irrelevant.

[–] magnusrufus 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh contribute is different than being the cause. Like I said from the beginning. So no. No disingenuousness. Just poor reading skills on your part.

[–] WindInTrees 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lol. My part. Right. Nice job arguing semantics after all your other bullshit. I'm done with this conversation.

[–] magnusrufus 1 points 1 year ago

Semantics? It's in my first comment. You were never trying to have a conversation. Being done is a good idea because if you actually did try to have a conversation your ideas probably wouldn't hold up and I'm getting the impression that you lack the emotional maturity to handle that.
