    Is pepper spray better than a gun for anti-thug work?

    "Silly"? Because you believe it is? You tried to bully me and you're upset because I'm not buying your personal attacks or your sarcasm. I suspect you're also upset due to posting #31 by someone other than me. I posted this: "One thing I do believe is that those who carry firearms...

    Is pepper spray better than a gun for anti-thug work?

    It's interesting how some get revved-up when anyone suggests that those who carry firearms also have a moral obligation to carry a less-than-lethal (eg. pepper spray) weapon in tandem with their firearms. The excuses offered range from ridiculous to the offensive. Spin it any way you want...

    Is pepper spray better than a gun for anti-thug work?

    Keep going. You lost this discussion many posting ago when you started with the sarcasm and the personal attacks. Your "incredibly naive, foolish, and pompous (and unsubstantiated) statements" fool no one. Finally you're clearly confused about what an ad hominem is. From Wikipedia: ad...

    Is pepper spray better than a gun for anti-thug work?

    That's not true. I posted a position (that I'm more than willing to defend) which apparently does not agree with your own personal opinion. Your first response was devoid of any facts and it was sarcastic. Your second posting was a personal attack. You said "...I pointed out that the tools...

    Is pepper spray better than a gun for anti-thug work?

    Still tap-dancing, huh? Your comments are so very transparent. You lack the qualities to honestly defend your personal beliefs on this matter. Instead you resorted to sarcasm and a personal attack. That's bad form and that's on you. Finis.

    Why are we always on the defensive?

    Good question... It's far easier to adopt a "circle the wagons/bunker mentality" than to really engage issues. Remaining engaged can be exhausting.

    Firearm Prices Going Lower

    1.) You need to work on your reading comprehension. See emboldened text above. 2.) Anyone who actually labels themselves as being "smart" would have to be fairly stultified (or naive and arrogant), wouldn't you agree? 3.) Just what are you "getting ready" for? 4.) You have studied history...

    Is pepper spray better than a gun for anti-thug work?

    Now you're transitioning from sarcasm to an ad hominem attack. That's low road bunkum. You just showed us all that you cannot defend your belief on this matter.

    Is pepper spray better than a gun for anti-thug work?

    Cute. Not. It's sad that you resorted to sarcasm rather than honestly discuss this issue.

    Is pepper spray better than a gun for anti-thug work?

    Amen. Some of the comments remind me of the silly 9mm comments by misguided fans of other calibers. One thing that really bothers me are those that claim that a potential victim does not have a chance on which weapon to choose. That might be the case in a tiny number of situations but the...

    Is pepper spray better than a gun for anti-thug work?

    Yeah, a moral obligation. I'm aware that some cannot comprehend why and that's squarely on them. I question if such people should ever be licensed to carry a firearm. Why would you change what I said? Do you get away with doing that in real life? What I actually said was: "One thing I do...

    Is pepper spray better than a gun for anti-thug work?

    One thing I do believe is that those who carry firearms (concealed or open) have the moral obligation to also carry a non-lethal weapon (ex. pepper spray.) The default action cannot always be to shoot. I believe it should actually be a requirement of licensing. Some claim there is "no time"...

    Is pepper spray better than a gun for anti-thug work?

    If you're worried about "legal hassles" you had better find yourself from pepper spray designed to be used against adults and not bears. Very similar to those who buy cans of insecticide to use against others. Both can do damage and both can provide the foundation for lawsuits.

    In All Sincerity, How Do You Anti-California Bashers Feel Now?

    If you happen to be anti-California basher (this forum has far fewer than many other gun-related forums) when it comes to firearms laws and potential firearms laws whose solution is always "move out of CA!" I have a sincere question: How does it feel to ponder what's now going on in the US...

    Firearm Prices Going Lower

    People need to begin to understand that the last 8-10 years have been unprecedented in firearms sales in the US. Not only have current demands been supplied, a HUGE, HUGE amount of future demand that became current demand through fear and uncertainty has also been supplied. Some try to sell...

    CLASSIC EXAMPLE: Why I Don't Open Carry.

    CC is tactically superior to OC. There's no question about that. CC also doesn't antagonize and/or scare people like OC tends to do. These important advantages of CC over OC far exceed any good provided by the boost OC gives to some egos...

    Possible Response to Orlando & Calls to Ban Guns

    I'm not so sure. Like San Bernardino this isn't just a "mass shooting." This is an act of TERRORISM. It will be interesting to see exactly what happens in the political arena.

    Yet again, the AR15 becomes the root cause

    You're offering two more strawmen in this context. Horrific massacres have taken place in the US when our immigration system was in good shape and Islamic terrorism wasn't an issue. The real issue is extremely complex and varying -- a general coarsening of our society. No quick fixes -- no...

    Yet again, the AR15 becomes the root cause

    The fallout from this terribly horrific is going to be fascinating to watch. First, it took place in generally pro-2A Florida. What will the government's response be? Second, the murderer Omar Mateen appears to have Islamic ties. There has been no claim of responsibility for the attack but...
