How is a gun illegal if our right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed..?
Sorry to be obtuse. I do understand the point of this post.
I would rather frame it this way: Restrictions on gun ownership have failed to stop criminals from obtaining guns. Even if you could ban all guns, you couldn't stop criminals from killing people. Owning guns gives little old men and young woman a chance against a psychotic, overpowering attacker.
short and sweet might make it past the liberal brain's protective shielding (IE stupidity) more easily.
Was talking about the “great equalizer“ aspect with my wife the other day. This came up around her gripe: “I'm sick of shows and movies pretending that a 100lb woman can fight off and crush some 6'6 goon.“
My counter theory is “normalize the fantasy“ to foundationally chip away at the equalizer argument.
This is a dumb story I’m about to tell, but it reminds me of when I was in high school and my girlfriend and I would thumb wrestle. (Told you it was dumb)
Anyway, she was all ‘girl-power’ rah rah, and you know, no problem with that. But she would challenge me over and over, and of course, she would always lose.
I finally asked her why she kept wanting to thumb wrestle and she said she would ‘get me one day.’ I told her she wouldn’t and to prove it, I would let her get me in the best pin she could possibly manage. She agreed. I asked her if she was satisfied with her hold. She said yes. I told her to start counting to 3. Before she could even mouth the word “1” I was out.
She looked dumbfounded. She couldn’t believe it. She actually cried a little bit and I apologized thinking I had done something wrong. Later on, I realized some of it was her coming to terms with the fact some of the ‘just as strong as men’ garbage the media was telling her was a big fat lie.
There is indeed differences between the sexes. That’s okay. We have different strengths.
Hardly any guns in China and yet those people find more ways to kill and be killed than you ever thought possible.
