I don't feel compelled to explain every gawddam nuance of why I might write a response, particularly to the thick-head clots Right-wingers and Authoritarians here which most of the US members here are.

If you didn't notice the original reply was addressed to the anonymous "Starter" and if you didn't catch the open contempt for his referencing motor vehicle accidents in order to minimize gun violence, don't complain to me, Doc.

We don't compose treatises here, and I'll be honest, I don't have much interest in the childish concept of "debate"...the guy wrote something stupid, I made it clear how stupid it was.


Doc, I think you need to slow the fawk down with your attacking people until you can correctly draw correct conclusions on the intent of what somebody is referring or alluding to...particularly when they are agreeing with you...

Because here you have fawked up royally.

And Gawd help your patients and co-workers if you jump to conclusions and get as defensive so quickly as you have done on your one simple misunderstanding.

As to "ahead of you", I'm presuming I'm older than you, and presuming I was advocating non-violence before you.
And that included guns, AND cars as means of violent death.

Since you're a doctor---take a pill, relax a bit.
Think of all the ways the word Peace can be said...

sounds like you shouldn't be driving either. Or do you just ride right seat and fawk with the tablet :)

Doctor?????? :rolleyes:

What a ton of total puppy stuff. :crazy:

This argumentative, insulting, and arrogant troll is not a medical doctor. :rotflmao:

No way. The troll aint even smart enough to figure out when someone is agreeing with him.....

probably some orderly carrying bedpans somewhere......with some internent access where he can read about arteries on Wikie....and dream on......I liked his other BS stories about what he claimed to be much better but this one is funnier for sure..... :rolleyes:

Besides there are laws about impersonating a doctor......careful you dont end up with the end "up" err... "doing" prostrate exams from the bottom side rather than the top side :eek:

If your neighbourhood really is so dangerous that it's safest to be armed, there are deeper-rooted problems there — problems that owning firearms in the name of security probably won't fix.

If you've been on these boards long enough you'll know my opinion on the Second Amendment. Never once have I seen an example where it contributes to making society better, or safer.

Perpatrator was sentenced to 25 years. Wasted life. If the gun was not there they would not have had a conflict that escalated. Oh, and just in case you believe it was an illegal weapon. It wasn't. Not gang members. In fact both were professionals.

If someone has an intent to kill they will do it with a baseball bat, a knife or a gun. Whatever they can get their hands on.
Most people are not bloody thirsty psychopaths... Some are, and they do bad things. That's life.

Also for the record, I don't think it's all that easy to get one's hands on an assault rifle in america... Something that looks like one sure...

I always liked Chris Rock's solution:
Give everyone a gun...
Charge $5,000 per bullet.

What!
So only the rich can kill?

They have too many luxuries as is . . . . .

Guns don't kill people,
people kill people.

Guns don't kill people,
Gaping holes in vital organs kill people.

etc. etc. etc.

If I erred I apologize. The onus is on you to post your response clearly so

that the person answering does not have to deduce to whom you are referring.

That you know who you are referring to is inconsequential. Make yourself a little clearer in future.

That was what I referred to as substantiating your posture. I suppose I could say that he was actually in more agreement than disagreement to your stated message but I used a phrase that was not all encompassing to your position. You still took it the wrong way, and I mentioned it. So you want to call me for using a less than absolutely lucid phrase. You need to lighten up Scro! You are grasping at straws.
As to how juvenile I act;
I have a Baseball players sense of humor something I acquired while competing at a very high level until I was 44 years old. I can find comedy in almost any situation It has nothing to do with my self esteem. I come on this forum to have fun period. The moderators know that. They also know I don't give a ratz a$$ if I get banned.
I hope that satiated your very thinly veiled attempt to try to make me look unaware.
BTW I have a BA in English Lit. Any attempt by you trying to take into question my command of the English language is absurd.
Now you may go back to your Manischewitz and Gefilte Fish. Shalom

BTW you do remind me of a character from "The Merchant of Venice"

Which character in Merchant of Venice? Oh, and by the way, if you received a degree in English literature you sure as hell did not do so well in the writing and verbalizing category. As I stated in my prior post "substantiating your posture" in the manner that you wrote it has absolutely no meaning. It is obtuse, ignorant, and if you have a degree as you state, an embarrassment to whomever it was that tried to lecture you.

You babble and say nothing. You use words that you do not know the meaning and then when you do find a word you use it out of context.

If you believe that I care for your rabid tirade and pompous arogance as you try to deflect your abhorrence for me into an insult and defence of another, then try again.
