If it's being done for intimidation, then it wouldn't be concealed. Logic fail.

False equivalencies are rightwing talking points. yallerdawg Jan 2017 #22

Collective indictments, such as you articulated in post #1, are a right wing characteristic. Marengo Jan 2017 #26

Right wing and radical left. Hortensis Jan 2017 #37

You should check out our 2016 Democratic Party Platform. yallerdawg Jan 2017 #46

You can question courteously. Hortensis Jan 2017 #49

The Party platform condemns every American gun owner as desiring to be mass killer? Marengo Jan 2017 #52

When you go to buy a gun... yallerdawg Jan 2017 #56

The majority of American gun owners have a desire to shoot people? Marengo Jan 2017 #63

The majority of Americans own guns for protection. yallerdawg Jan 2017 #64

They have a strong feeling of wishing for that to happen? Marengo Jan 2017 #83

Post #83 is patiently awaiting an answer. Marengo Jan 2017 #103

How is a mass killer in a truck a "false equivalency" to a mass killer with a gun? EX500rider Jan 2017 #34

Doesn't fit his narrative. yagotme Jan 2017 #39

Yeah, we need to have "Truck Violence" websites... yallerdawg Jan 2017 #43

Thanks for the permission. Can cars count, too? yagotme Jan 2017 #45

I can beat that! yallerdawg Jan 2017 #61

Don't see any US vehicle assaults there. yagotme Jan 2017 #112

You seriously consider guns and vehicles to be equivalent? yallerdawg Jan 2017 #41

No I do not, I think trucks are more dangerous in the hands of a mass killer. EX500rider Jan 2017 #44

Guns are specifically designed to kill. guillaumeb Jan 2017 #51

And yet a vehicle, used as a weapon, killed 86 in a single event. Fairly effective for something... Marengo Jan 2017 #54

Which says nothing about intended use, and design intent. guillaumeb Jan 2017 #87

Design intent is irrelevant from a public safety perspective. Now that has been established that... Marengo Jan 2017 #104

Again, design intent is the only relevant issue from a public safety perspective. guillaumeb Jan 2017 #109

And yet 4 more were just killed by something not designed as a weapon being used as a weapon. Marengo Jan 2017 #115

You are ignoring my point. guillaumeb Jan 2017 #119

How about answering my question? What am I to infer from your refusal to do so? Marengo Jan 2017 #120

You might infer whatever you wish to infer. guillaumeb Jan 2017 #121

And now you may post a link to where I've said such a thing, or retract. If you have the integrity. Marengo Jan 2017 #122

Your posts in this thread attempting to equate vehicles with firearms guillaumeb Jan 2017 #123

You have neither apparently. I'll ask you again for a link to where I have indicated I am... Marengo Jan 2017 #124

Perhaps this will help? guillaumeb Jan 2017 #125

Not accepting that, it's too specific and cannot be reasonable deduced from the content of my... Marengo Jan 2017 #126
