@bmanva: Haha. You are truly blessed if you make zero preparations in a day. What's the future like?

@thegerg: Do your legs give you the means to walk?
No, its not a good trade because property shouldn't be banned in America. Have these people that say they are on the right side of history deface confederate graves too.
@thegerg: Ah now I see what you are saying. But do you see what I am saying? Its completely different. I'm not talking about my gun giving me permission to kill, you are. I say, you have the ability to shoot anyone at anytime. These conversations are so dumb. One person gets one word wrong and you pursue it. Why? For example, you keep giving examples of people half way around the world. Aha! You got me. You can't kill "anyone" anyone. But you can still kill unspecified anyone, anyone. :|
@bmanva: I guess there's self defense and there's unlucky. I'd rather be prepared than not. I have a blanket in my car too, I guess that means I'm paranoid for each tenth mile my car will break down too. ??
@LOXO7:
Haha. What, exactly, do you think "going postal" means?
Listen, it's physically impossible for me to "shoot anyone at any time", regardless of whether or not I'm a cop or carrying a gun. A gun isn't a magical tool that allows me to do damage to anyone I want whenever I want. If that was the case, the U.S. wouldn't have spent billions of dollars trying to kill bin Laden, they could have just given one guy a gun. I think maybe this type of unrealistic representation of the power and capability of guns is something that causes problems when people try to have effective conversation about the issues we face in the real world.
Haha ah... In, the, context, of what has been said. It; Postal - to "shoot anyone at any time."
Allen-Jennifer lost her mind when she started shooting people last night. Bill- Would you say she had gone, postal? Allen- Are you a dumb ass?! Of course she went postal.
It is physically possible to shoot anyone at any time. Let me break it down. Three things you will need to accomplish this "impossible" task.
1) A firearm
2) Someone, preferably not yourself
3) Time
Since these three things are commonly found together at once zillions times a day, its hard to say it is impossible with a straight face.
It is better for your argument that a gun be a magical tool since magic doesn't exist and therefore is impossible. But, you're right it isn't because it is a physical, lifeless, object, incapable of thinking for itself and allowing you to go postal. Is this what I'm saying? I'm the one talking about magic fantasies that I had in my army days taking down Osama by myself? Haha too good.
Ahem, right back to the real world where there is a zero out of zillions (it isn't infinite only because of the 24 hr day) of chances that you have of going postal. In no form of reality will you take the wrong amount of medication, be drugged, be brainwashed... (don't be fooled man mind control is REAL), or other various brain malfunctions that would cause you to go postal.
@bmanva: Yes that person is dangerous. The firearm has been called the great equalizer for a reason. You don't mess with a person who is packing. Though, instead of dangerous I think you mean, "Does this make a person a criminal." And the answer to that question is no. Just because you can doesn't make it, legal, right, acceptable. Though, it being illegal and wrong doesn't stop it from happening. Why the hate on cautious women, man?
@thegerg: (Haha. I do not miss these kinds of conversations.) I didn't know there was a difference.
@thegerg: Going postal.
@thegerg: But you can do it. In the sense that, it is, a possibility.
