So any gun enthusiasts here

[Johro]

Just sleep beside a barbecue lighter and a can of hairspray and you'll be okay. Plus no one expects that shit. Better yet, get a broad sword a swing it around like a maniac. :P These crazy alarm system things are supposed to work alright too I guess.

Seriously though, I really should get a gun, then I could be just like you; a charming, tolerant and intelligent wordsmith. Ah sod it, I'll just smoke another joint and continue being a pussy.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go and shit myself in a corner.

I smoke pot AND shoot guns! Just, er, not at the same time. That's not overly wise, izzit?

Sad but unrelated coincidence: The people with the guns and those smoking pot are not normally overly wise anyway.

I'm in Georgia. I know all about unwise gun owners. I was at an outdoor range once and a couple of bubbas brought a 24 back with their rifles. I put down my AK and turned to them with an "I seriously hope you guys aren't serious" look on my face. They cracked their Coors and went to work on some steel deer silhouettes down range. I finished my magazine and left.

Amazingly, the only time I've ever seen someone shoot high was with my stoner friends. They live in bumblefuck nowhere, yeah? So one of them tokes up and gets this antique shotgun out. Well, he fires at a stump a few paces off of the porch of the house and we all wander out on the porch. He's got this shit eating grin on him and we all sort of shake our heads. It's horrendously unsafe, but I'll be damned if he didn't blast that stump straight to hell.

That being said, High Pants' head spins too much for shooting while smoking green.

Your comment is a generalisation (obviously) but saying that people who smoke pot are not overly wise? Would you say the same about people who like to enjoy a glass of alcohol from time to time? If not, then that's a pretty hypocritical statement to make (assuming that you drink).

Addendum: Unless you were implying that those who get high and then shoot a gun are not overly wise, in which case I agree.

I think he means simultaneously. Then again, I think only the nuttiest right winger would call people like Hunter S Thompson "not overly wise." Generalizations.

Agreed.

I've amended my original comment to reflect on the possibility that Vainamoinen was referring to those who do both things at once.

And thus, the balance was restored.
Note to self: find out how to turn deactivated guns into novelty bongs. Hell yeah.

When did this thread become a poop slinging thread.

Guns don't kill people, Monkeys do!

Well apes...



Look at them, with their brute strength and lack of morals, and poop slinging madness.

Good thing I was prepared for such an occasion!



The bastards won't see me comi..errr... looking at them...

Think about it for a second. You have a steaming turd in your hand, and your intention is to throw it at SOMEBODY. Why WOULDN'T you throw it at the guy who looks like a moron? Is your shit too GOOD for them? =P

I think that you just answered your own question there, buddy.

They pick their marks.

Someone looking away is just too damn easy!

Nah, there's no trolling in stating my opinion.

And still I'm surprised a thread like this doesn't get shut down right away... Should we start a thread about prostitution? Or was that illegal in the US? I start losing sight of what's considered right or wrong...

Please. The law has no baring on what's right or wrong, that is entirely up to cultural morality. Personally, I have no problem with prostitution but whatever.

The way I see it, the only bad thing about guns is that they can be used by criminals or governments to kill innocents. However, when used for defense, or to kill truly horrible people - Bin Laden, for example - guns are a good thing. Therefore, there's nothing morally reprehensible about them.

Besides, people die anyway. Are you going to be against alcohol next? I mean, more people die of alcohol related problems than gun crime.

Anyway, here's some food for thought:


Anyway, back on subject...

Adorable. Since you honestly believe that, allow me to ask you this: what makes you think that? I mean, am I a sick psychopath? Off kilter, sure, but not the next Son of Sam as you seem to suggest. I mean, what's so hideously wrong with wanting to go hunting or defend yourself that you feel the need to call us - all of us ever, apparently - psychopaths?

There are legitimate reasons for having guns, such as hunting wild animals (which aren't farmed for food and aren't available any other way). Where I live, deer hunting is common (through both shotgun and bow hunting, which have separate seasons). Being that my sister's boyfriend and my friend's stepfather are hunters, I have to admit I've become a fan of venison. Although I don't do it myself, I have absolutely no problem with people who hunt for food.

Venison is delicious. My dad bagged a deer last year and that was some great eating for quite a while.
