It doesn't end up there. You may call it absurd. Many people believe it's not. Not because they're idiots, but they believe they see correlations and consistencies with events in history. They have quotes and beliefs from our founding fathers to assist their beliefs. You have a "law" created over the internet. Who is right? I'm not smart enough to know. But I know what I believe. I know what I believe is not "absurd" nor a "fallacy". I also know that I can have a conversation with somebody with a dissenting opinion without throwing words out to make myself seem smarter and to belittle them.
Piers Morgan has been insufferable the last few weeks as he has been on a soapbox for gun control
His debates are basically him yelling at people to answer questions
I am not an Alex Jones fan but he dominated Piers that night. Piers couldn't get a word in :ols:
Listen, I have no say in this. I just like entertainment. And that was entertaining.
Some of us evaluate domination in a debate or discussion by who has the stronger argument on the merits, Alex Jones screaming about reliving his disgusting dream of an armed revolution to protect guns doesn't come close. In that respect all Piers had to do was not say anything and he's have dominated the fool Jones.Quote:

Again, no one is saying that you can't have a gun. People are saying, you don't need a gun that can shoot 100 bullets in five seconds. Or armor piercing bullets. Is saying people shouldn't have nuclear weapons "disarming the people?"
Edit:
The second video was great by the way: "If you punch me right now, its not your fist that did it, its your brain."
Who is pushing for the population to be completely disarmed?Quote:

Some on the far Left, but the grown ups know it'll never happen, but the gun lobby would have people believe that Obama is going to take their guns, they already believe he is Hitler and Stalin rolled into one, but invoking Godwin's law is perfectly reasonable, because once the guns are gone we'll be helpless to resist the FEMA concentration camps.Quote:

Not to mention car keys, household medication, wet floors, and mattress tags.
Are you Alex Jones in disguise?Quote:

If not, then pipe down. We aren't talking about you, and we aren't insulting you.
