Why Does the U.S. Have So Many Mass Shootings? Research Is Clear: Guns.

So what? Massacre victims would be just as dead if they were killed with knives. Or with bombs. Or with vehicles driven at high speed. Or with whatever other diabolical ideas a murderer might come up with.

Denial and bald assertion does not a cogent argument make. It really is that simple.

What is asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.

Deny it all you want, but it's the law of the land supported by any number of court rulings, that that governmental agencies have the right to alter, ban, recall, take legal proceedings against manufacturers of items deemed a danger to the public. It's been done any number of times, from prescription to automobiles to toys to firearms.

Actually corporations have legal rights in America. The left is not allowed to harm an organization for no reason.

Now if a corporation actually breaks the law, that is different.

Get over what? I am not aware of anything that I need to get over.

Tried that. They get ignored. Try it yourself.

Ok, this is pure Comedy Gold, right here.

You're complaining about "free speech" when you have ample opportunity, desire, media presence and the ability to post what you want but you won't because you get ignored??

LMAO!

@neptuneblue,

He's not promoting free speech, he's promoting his speech. He ignores our right to ignore him.

And I find that fact particularly humorous!

How is he supposed to be doing that?

@oralloy,

Who said he was "supposed" to do anything?

@hightor,

Bobsal said it. His exact words were:

"He ignores our right to ignore him."

A statement that "someone is doing something" is usually considered to be a claim that the person in question is doing the action in question.

@oralloy,

In which case the statement is self-explanatory and your question reduced to the status of pointless kvetching. Assuming that we all have the right to ignore somebody if we wish, Builder's objection to starting new threads simply because they will be ignored reveals his belief that not paying attention to him is somehow unacceptable, as if he had a right to be noticed.

@hightor,

My "How stupid is Trump" thread, is still going strong after almost two years.

Not all threads get ignored.

I never said he was supposed to do anything. Where'd I even use the word 'supposed'?

Don't you just cringe a little when you reread your sentences like that and realize it's too late to delete or edit them?

Reread what he said about his self confessed feelings about the futility of his posting small OPs regarding simple topics.

Sometimes it just feels like when you engage in this type of behavior, it is disingenuous and malicious.

If he did he wouldn't use the same seven sentences over and over again.

If he was at all ashamed of his severely limited vocabulary he would have shut up a long time ago.

Self explanatory and also incorrect.

I do not believe that it is pointless to point out that Builder is not doing what he was described as doing.

Believing that he should be paid attention to (if that is even his belief) does not ignore other's right to ignore him.

If people choose to ignore him, he does not prevent it in any way.

Even if he has the belief that you accuse him of, that still does not prevent people from ignoring him. And it is far from established that he has such a belief.

An example of ignoring people's right to ignore you would be to create a brand new ID for every single post.

What you said was that he was actually doing that something.

No.

I do cringe when I see that I have made a idiotic spelling mistake, but my sentence there is perfectly adequate. I am satisfied with it.

His post is as I remember it.

I have a very good memory.

What behavior? Pointing out that someone is not doing what they are described as doing?

There is no malice or disingenuousness behind my posting of relevant facts.

@oralloy,

Don't be in such a rush to prove my point.

We all know what's going to happen, the least you could do is dangle the punchline for a bit before falling flat on your face.

@Mame,

Notice his phrasing, expansive not extensive vocabulary, as if his words are increasififying like some superfragiliitic syllabubism enhancifying vocabulariser.

'n that.
