Re: Mass shootings and The Mentally Ill

I didn't say that it was. In fact, I'm for banning assault rifles. My objection was to two parts of the comment I responded to:

1. "You will NEVER have to fight off zombie hordes or fend off your property from bandits." - This was what my first paragraph was about, showing that yes, sometimes people have to defend their property or themselves from people breaking into their homes. This IS a thing that happens. Guns HAVE saved lives in these cases.

2. The overall tone painting the opposing side as backwater idiots, for example "It's sad that we can't have a discussion about gun control without someone frothing at the mouth about how 'the govenmant tryin to take 'er gurns away'" This was my main objection, and in particular what I addressed in my second paragraph.

Maybe if you (assuming you were the initial anon I responded to) learned to both read the comment you're responding to and not jump to conclusion people wouldn't "froth at the mouth" when you discussed your political beliefs.
