No, insult-spamming hypocrite, it means the big numbers you keep throwing around to say 'there's too many guns for laws to work!' gradually stop being an excuse. Like, if there were only one hundred million guns in this country, the black market would be less able to provide firearms to murderous assholes.

But you have to keep pretending I mean instantly solving all problems, or you can't stick to your script.

Same as pretending "here's a few ways this could happen" means "no explanation how."

And childish name-calling as pitifully bare projection. You're not even listening to yourself.

No u, you wanna devolve it we can devolve it. I'm flexible. You wanna have a real, respectable conversation we can do that but you can't be mad when I insult you back.

SO WHAT IS YOUR EXACT PLAN? Still waiting. Oh you have none? Surprise looks like I'm right.

Noooo uuuuuuu.

[–] mindbleach 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You're still waiting because you're not listening. I named three possibilities. For some reason, you think three is less than one. You responded to one of them... and it still didn't change your script. You're still expectantly waggling that hoop when I'm on the other side of it.

You have not proven yourself capable of the respectable conversation you imagine you can offer. The world's most blatant sarcasm sailed clean over your head. Appealing to your gun-guy knowledge was treated as a flub. Evidently it's not an ESL thing, or issues communicating with the neurotypical, because here you are posturing and name-calling as hard as you can manage. You really are just bad at this.

Meanwhile, there's basically every other country in the world that does things differently, and your insistence that "fewer guns" is an impossible self-contradiction doesn't seem to bother them. Like, even if it's only dastardly moustache-twirling criminals with guns, there's fewer of them, and they shoot fewer people.

Alright so then I clearly missed it then, what are your three ways? Surely the next reply will include them.

Ya mama.

neurotypical

OH ableism. Cute. That's a good look that reflects positively on your "three" unsaid pieces of comprehensive legislature.

MEANWHILE AT THE HALL OF JUSTICE

bruh I'm not even reading this shit anymore. Just fuck off while you're behind if you don't want to be an insufferable prick.

[–] mindbleach 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

OH ableism.

The opposite, but at this point I can't be surprised. I was concerned you might not be neurotypical... but I'm pretty sure you just suck at this.

Goodbye, troll.
