This statement indicates that you really don't know why the 2nd Amendment was included in the Bill of Rights. If you think ownership of firearms prevents tyranny, you haven't been paying attention. The only person that said anything about preventing tyranny is you, man. |

Simply being male isn't enough to justify the shooting as a belief of imminent grievous bodily harm. Well duh. Like all weapons, it's used when situations warrant it. I've been maced. It didn't even slow me down from laying a good solid ass beating on a twerp*. In that instance, had I been some heinous perp attacking a much smaller female, the female would have been in serious trouble. And you suggest bear spray? That shit is barely spicy at all. * This was back when I was bouncing, said twerp had been banned. He came back anyway, I told to get lost he wasn't getting in. He thought pepper spraying the bouncer at the door would mean he'd have free reign of the place. I mean... even if I hadn't wiped his ass and sat on him till the sheriff arrived, there were three more bouncers inside and two at the other door 15 feet away. |

No realli! She was Karving her initials on the moose with the sharpened end of an interspace toothbrush given her by Svenge—her brother-in-law— an Oslo dentist and star of many Norwegian movies: "The Hot Hands of an Oslo Dentist", "Fillings of Passion", "The Huge Molars of Horst Nordfink"...
Mynd you, moose bites Kan be pretti nasti... |

When did Lefties stop keeping and bearing arms? Do they think that The Revolution will come with pleases and thank-yous?

Every liberal I know* has a firearm of some kind (from black powder muskets to hunting rifles to sport shotguns to 'combat' pistols). * Except for me, I'm not a gun person. But if I lived in the boonies, I'd probably have a rifle or a shotgun, purely for hunting/defense from large predator animals. |

Any time you want to go back to running with the brumbies is fine with me. Stop lying. Nobody needs a gun in this day and age - we're not hunter-gatherers any more - thus it's insane that the right to own and bear them is still part of the USA's (or any nation's) foundational document. This statement indicates that you really don't know why the 2nd Amendment was included in the Bill of Rights. |

Some folks do need a gun or whatever for hunting, to put meat on the table. When I was growing up, my brother and father hunted. For others, it's a hobby. As long as it's done responsibly and legally, I have no problem with it. Just because you get meat from a grocery, doesn't mean others have the means or the want to do so. Heck, we still go fishing and have a good time doing so. Trout, red and black drum are good eats when they're pulled fresh from the water, lemme tell ya.
As far as I know, wild-edible gathering is also still done. I know when I was a kid, I'd go berry and wild-grape picking. For other edibles, people do it for both for fun and because they actually need to.
In general, I've no problem with gun ownership or hunting/gathering, as long as it's done legally and responsibly.
Lol. I know, not an issue. But I've got good memories from fishing and berry/grape picking and eating what my dad/brother brought home from a hunt.

This aged well... Like milk out in the sun. I wish I were a gun store owner this weekend, several in my county have reported selling out of of stock. Like, sold out, no more guns in their stores. I wonder how many used their stimulus checks to pick up some "Hello 911. I'm sorry due to high call volumes we're experiencing a wait time of 45 minutes..." insurance. |

If Minneapolis has it's way, those 911 calls will result in sending out strongly worded letters to stop rapists, murderers and thieves... |
