[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh, and I have to lol at "2 days of training" plus a range session.  So the 2.5 day "gun experts" are being set loose with their vigilante wet dreams.[/quote]

Ok, serious question: do you [i]really[/i] think that these people with permits only go to a range once in their lives, to qualify for their permit?

If you really DO believe that, then say so. But if you suspect otherwise, and are just implying that for purposes of snark, then that’s a pretty bad-faith way to argue. [/quote]

A huge number of them do not go to the range.   They go a few times when they first get it and that's about it.[/quote]

And you have data to support this assertion?

Or just your anecdotal feelz? [/quote]

That absolutely is my anecdotal experience based on all of the people I know who own guns, and there are many.  Very few of them regularly go to a range or keep their skills up.   And I have seen no evidence to suggest that any meaningful percentage of gun owners do.  The reality is that even a lot of professionals who carry a gun for their job, like police officers lack adequate skills and trainings.

Now your turn - Do you have data to support your notion that gun carriers are all highly skilled and proficient?  Or just your anecdotal feels?  
Just kidding - Of course you don't have any such data.[/quote]

I’m not the one making a claim. You are. And without data to support it. So it’s pretty much as worthless as everything else you’ve bleated about here. [/quote]

Yes you are making claims, because throughout this thread you were claiming that the random people who own guns are somehow protecting themselves and that they are somehow trained, capable and qualified to do so, despite never offering up any legitimate evidence of this.

But now you're whining about "worthless bleating" which is exactly what you were doing all along.  Such irony.[/quote]

Do you just camp out on this thread? I’m replying to you from like 10 hrs ago, and you responded in 2 minutes?

Are you being paid to post on this thread? We’re you hired by Everytown or some other group to just make forum posts all day and night? I’m genuinely curious. [b]I know such people exist, I knew a person who did this type of work during the pandemic[/b] - I’ve just never encountered it “in the wild” until now. [/quote]

Sure you do, sure.  Is this "paid gun control poster" in the room with us right now?  :roll:
