Is There A Reason Why Those Most Ignorant Of Firearms Have So Much Sway?

[MTpockets]

I am not really sure what that means but I hope Oilfield Rando had plenty of kleenex, or at least a sock.

I apologize for my written skills. Had a little accident a while back, and now I have difficulty with processing thoughts to written word. Bullet points might be easier for me.

• Rando views the contradiction of "AR-15" and the photo of shotgun ammunition.
• Rando's brain tells him there is a problem with the information
• Rando spreads the information.
• NYT opinion piece is spread. Mission Accomplished
• Rando gets a bunch of thumb-up likes, while spreading a message that isn't part of his beliefs.

I am implying that the contradiction could have purposeful. But Rando could be a bot, and the response could be AI generated
…and these could be bunch of Hoppy Socks that you might enjoy.

I don't think the bullet points helped much….but I think the animated GIF checked the Activation box.

What I've noticed about the anti-gunners...

Those that scream the loudest demanding change, are usually the ones that are most resistant to change themselves. What if YOU are the one that needs to change?

and...

Those that scream the loudest, demanding that we have a conversation about gun control, often can't even spend a modest amount of time educating themselves so that we could actually have an EDUCATED and INFORMED discussion.

This is because these people don't really want to have a discussion and they don't want reasonable solutions. What they want is to cram down their opinions, edicts, and so called solutions on the rest of society.

Some media attention and the Slimes gets a little backlash

NY Times ridiculed for using shotgun shell photo to promote article attacking AR-15s: ‘This is hysterical’

The New York Times was ridiculed over the weekend by social media users for using a photo of shotgun shells in an opinion piece attacking the AR-15 as part of “toxic gun culture.”

The military studied declining marksmanship skills and concluded as more people are leaving rural areas and move into urban areas, there is less familiarity with firearms (One Shot One Kill, Roberts & Sasser, 1990).

Married women with children and single women vote differently. There are more single women voters now than ever before, and they overwhelmingly vote anti-gun. The next time you see David Hogg speaking, do a quick study of the crowd and you'll see.

That's the sad truth.

In 1938 when Hitler authorized the Gun Control Act that banned "enemies of the state," such as Hindenburg conservatives and Hebrews, from owning firearms, this started Germany's downfall. A few weeks later Kristallnacht (night of broken glass) occurred and the people were unable to defend themselves. As we know, it was only a downhill battle from there where the German people were utterly helpless against the Third Reich.

If that would have happened, I would have read about it in school. Obviously sarcasm , but somehow millions of Americans fail to make any connection, while for decades saying, how much distrust they have for government.

We have youth in media, entertainment and education who have no context of the past. Every school should issue a t-shirt of the Holocaust on the front and the Rooftop Koreans on the back, with the caption: Remember history.

Same reason religious cults get soooo big.

Ditto this. Even Christianity (or certain facets or elements of it) are beginning to become cult-like as well.

Yup. Definition of "Expert" broken down. Ex - has been. Pert - drip under pressure. Most true experts are reluctant to, or avoid using that title for themselves.

Maybe look up the definition of "pert". Just sayin

"Spert" not "pert" (spelled phonetically not correctly)

 

[bionic knees]

seems the most ignorant often have the most to say!

 

[po18guy]

Ignorance is bliss.

...and pays very well. It also speaks the loudest and most often. This is pretty much a definition of "activist" as we have come to know them. They used to mobilize in favor of rights. Now, against. It is known (and written) that evil opposes and undoes what is good. The proof is before us.

Well, we are all ex spurts regardless...

Right so it was bait for marginally literate Rando.

That sock thing is pretty cool.

KATU keeps repeating on the news that if 114 is upheld only hunters can use Hi caps or citizens in their own homes.

Is this the wording?

Hunters are restricted to 5 round mags. Squirrels may be an exception, IIRC.

No surprise that K2 would ignorant or willingly pass along misinformation on this issue.

The wording of the bill is different. The text has likely been linked the various 114 threads several dozen times..

Thank you for the answer, I resisted starting yet another thread.

Once Jeraldo (aka Jared) showed millions in America will watch someone kick in an empty wall, media stopped trying. Real reporters are far and few between. Most are like Howdy Dooty for adults. Hello kids. Yuk yuk.

I'm in Monterey. Hate to admit, but it is beautiful. My sister called on the way down, super concerned about a bad storm on the news. Blue skies and 54 degrees thru Red Bluff. They want to keep people afraid and uniformed.

Yeah.... Guy was nuts, but not wrong in this statement

Hah. He poisoned the salad bar so his salad-eating opponents were too busy puking to vote against him. Sort of wrong legally and morally, but... kind of like...
