Could you help me understand how sexual abuse of minors is somehow related to firearms? I have serious concerns regarding the state of your mental health if you actually entertain the notion that people should be able to sexually abuse minors.
Does such a reality intersect at all with your hyperbole?
Probably not, since you'll just deliberately miss the point to try and deflect.
The pro-gun community routinely claims that gun laws are pointless because they'll just be broken anyway, a philosophy which is deeply stupid and morally reprehensible when applied to absolutely anything else, but they seem to think they logic is sound when it comes to gun laws.
Yes. Vastly more so than pro-gun promises to keep people safe from criminals and tyranny.
Ah, I see. You can't explain the canyon-crossing leap between the two because of the other person - it's totally not because you're connecting nonsense.
Neat.
I'm still looking for the connection to your bizarre obsession with the abuse of children. Did you have one?
This, aside from your absurd reduction of the rejection of ineffective laws which provide no benefit regarding the stated problems yet provide an pointless restriction on otherwise law-abiding citizens.
I see we're still deep in the realm of works cited: crack pipe. Fair enough.
