What would the intention be then?

Im not sure why you feel the need to be condesending.

Condescending! That's what Sparky would call the kettle black...or the pot or something! I am sure you would not like someone from Chicago telling you how you are a victim living in Wasilla because you have guns there, right?

I felt very safe living in a city where I did not have to worry about my neighbor "celebrating" New Year's Eve by shooting off his gun. And a stray bullet coming in my window. I did not worry about being robbed with the handgun stolen from the house down the block.

Trust I will not come to Wasilla and tell you that you are a victim. Perhaps you can extend the same courtesy to the citizens of Chicago? Without being condescending?

Although, I DO believe the intention wasn't cruel or to strip him of his rights...

Oh if people only played their cards straight up. How much violence could be avoided?

Who should get to define "intention?" I pray you say "the person who OWNS the place."

Surely... in your infinite wisdom you can keep the common line "the pot calling the kettle black" straight without getting too confused or adding the usuall highschool girl's "or something"

I don't know... I lived in Canada where guns are a no no... and I certainly didn't believe I was beyond having to worry about stray bullets lol. Although it seems to usually happen in canada next to day care centers or strip clubs... yes quite the opposite ends of the spectrum but happened more often that one might like to admit

and you say that you don't force your views on wasilla and claim they are "victims" yet you seem to be quite the advocate on here about gun control laws and banning guns... is that not forcing your views on wasilla and other places that allow citizens to arm themselves?

I will await your "sparky... *add snarky remark about how right you are and how wrong everyone else without being condescending of COURSE* " here

or should I add

LOL

What city might that be ES? Tell me and I shall google stats.

My point? All the gun control laws in the world won't do SQUAT to make you more safe.

ES, you are going to lose this one. Period. WAY, WAY to many facts arrayed against you. The "anti-gun" crowd is armed, but only with "feelings", not facts.

Yes you are being condesending, i agree with Sparks. Someone from Chicago saying Im a victim is an oxymoron at the very least, sorry I dont follow your logic there.

I felt safe in areas where AHs fire guns off on the 4th of July and New Years Eve. I have had guns fired at my appartment, with the rounds coming less then a foot from my head.

I can legally arm myself, citizens of Chicago cant. Im being realistic, not condesending.

Just to make sure ES sees this, I quote.

There you have it. You feel safe with bullets whizzing about your head.

You have finally left me speechless.

I hope you don't have any kids there do you? With all those bullets whizzing around? Maybe you should call the police?

ES... Your complete unwilligness to resond to me, while you respond to others... Speaks volumes.

Nice edit, the passive aggressive is strong in you.

I live in the sticks now. I dont worry about gangs or teenagers with guns. If I did have kids they would know to respect firearms as the tools they are and not have the irrational fear of an inanimate object that you have.
