All AR-15 Owners are Mass Murderers!
« on: November 19, 2018, 09:30:44 AM »
I've watched this one for a couple of days, and it turned out to be better to hold off on posting till now, because it only got more comical.

One of the infamous "blue checks"(and "unbiased" Newsweek reporter) posted that everyone she's ever known of with an AR-15 has been a mass murderer. When she got the inevitable pile-on, she blamed it on "bots".

She's now taken it a step further to blame it on Russian bots that are being used to sow dissent in the US and create some kind of "violent armed minority" that will make it easier for them when they show up to take over. Of course if you accept her stereotype of the "NRA gun nut" that would own an EBR, they're exactly the kind of 'Merica rednecks that would fight the invading commie pinkos.  :laugh:

I saw that.  Pretty ignorant, but I she probably doesn't know anyone who owns an AR15.  Or at least the ones that do own one, don't tell her about it.  



I also saw that some of the California liberals started saying most AR15's were owned by "super owners" who owned more than 10 guns.  

https://www.thetrace.org/2016/09/gun-super-owners-harvard-survey/

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/sep/19/us-gun-ownership-survey

I was thinking about the 3% thing.  If 3% of 350,000,000 people own 30 guns each, that comes to around 300 Million guns.  Another reason I think the number of guns in this country is vastly understated.

IMHO any "survey" of gun owners is going to vastly understate both the number of gun owners and total number of guns.

These days, a LOT of people - I suspect a strong majority - simply will not respond to some stranger on the phone asking them personal questions about what kind and how many valuable items they may or may not own.

That's me.  I don't answer any surveys, ever.

I do answer surveys, but when it comes to guns, I have a very simple policy...

As I've said before, Trump is the only nationalist bigot I know of, that also happens to be in league with a hostile foreign power, that was our nation's dread enemy for his entire up-bringing.

As far as my doctor's office officially knows, I own no firearms.

I once asked my doctor what his training was that allowed him to advise me on methods of securing firearms safely... basically none, other than "mmmkay, guns are bad, mmmkay" from the AMA...

I might try lying to pollsters in the other direction.  I own 329 guns, over 100 are EBRs, and I support Bernie Saunders.  Let 'em figure that out.

The correct reply to your doctor is "stay in your lane."  =)
