Gun boards getting mundane with all the hysteria

[RVTECH]

bet your one of the types to say no big deal if they take them

I'll bet I am not. Please review the line of a post of mine often quoted:

I am not saying ban ARs or similar weapons but maybe it's time to change your shooting interests

That I do not own an AR, or care to does not make me 'one of the types' I find it interesting and refreshing that many agree with me and openly post their interests in other firearms. I, like others have mentioned, find the fascination with ARs and the variants beyond just a healthy interest and almost on a deifying level. It has for some (many) become an unnatural obsession bordering on the pornographic.

Are you a licensed psychologist to make such claims and assessments over the internet, or are you an armchair doctor posting his own emotional opinions and making broad generalizations as if he is medically qualified and justified to make such claims? Care to post the empirical data you cite? You said others feel the same way as you. Care to post some credible evidence of this? I will hold my breath until you go find some studies on this...

Just like some people like old Muscle cars while others prefer a Lexus or Lambo, some prefer newer, exotic guns to older, more classic firearms.

To say it's a mental illness to like a Lambo would be just as embarrassingly ignorant...

To say it's a mental illness

Except I never SAID 'It's a mental illness'

Nothing like winning an elections, dredging up a four year old thread and starting some infighting. What a way to start the week!
