    It’s a ‘hypothetical’ you keep bringing up in relation to something that actually happened.

    Clearly - the point is that guns are a tool used by tens of millions of americans to mainly provide food and protection for their families.

    Not unlike knives.

    Just because you don’t use guns, doesn’t mean they aren’t useful or even pivotal in other peoples lives. I’m not a carpenter, but if there was someone getting killed with a hammer, I don’t call for hammers to be banned. It’s a tool used in other peoples livelihoods.

    And I still never said anything about any bans. Were you going to acknowledge that?

    You responded to me in a chain of comments about banning guns. If you didn’t want to talk about it, why’d you respond to it?

      I responded to your repeated silly “hypothetical” about a thing you can’t demonstrate actually happens in response to something that actually has happened many times. If you don’t want to be criticized, don’t compare the reality to your imagination.

        Okay, so you don’t know what a hypothetical question is.

        “A hypothetical question is one based on supposition, not facts. They are typically used to elicit opinions and beliefs about imagined situations or conditions that don’t exist.”

        HAHAHA verbatim, dog. All you did was prove you don’t know what a hypothetical is.

          I know exactly what a hypothetical situation is. I also know why it’s silly to use one in comparison to something that has actually happened many times.
