Gun Control and Logic

[Hale]

When we hear about "gun control" from the Left, there is seldom any logic involved. Mr. Nugent presents nine points here with which I agree, and I challenge you to counter any of them. Please format your posts with his quote followed by your rebuttal.

Ted Nugent on Guns and Logic:

1 - Eleven teens die each day because of texting while driving. Maybe it's time to raise the age of Smart phone ownership to 21.
2 - If gun control laws actually worked, Chicago would be Mayberry.
3 - The Second Amendment makes more women equal than the entire feminist movement.
4 - Legal gun owners have 300 million guns and probably a trillion rounds of ammo. Seriously, folks, if we were the problem, you'd know it.
5 - When JFK was killed, nobody blamed the rifle
6 - The NRA murders 0 people and receives $0 in government funds. Planned Parenthood kills 350,000 babies every year and receives $500,000,000 in tax dollars annually.
7 - I have no problem with vigorous background checks when it comes to firearms. While we're at it, let's do the same when it comes to immigration, Voter I.D and Candidates running for office. Also for welfare recipients.
8 - You don't need a smoke detector; that's what the fire department is for. Now...if you think that sounds stupid, you know how I feel when you say I don't need a gun.
9 - Folks keep talking about another Civil War. One side knows how to shoot and has a trillion bullets. The other side has crying closets and is confused about which bathroom to use. How do you think that's going to end?

He's still an asshole who thinks courage comes from the barrel of a gun.

 

[kyzr]

Patriots do not hate practically all Americans and talk about making war on them all the time.

It sure doesn't hurt in the ole courage department to be strapped with a means of defense, right?



I would much rather have a gun when somebody is shooting up a theater than be a sitting duck meat target.

Who does the Nuge hate?

Are you talking out of your ass?

talk about making war on them all the time.

By "them" you mean the commie assholes trying to take away his rights? Who is making war on whom?

8 - You don't need a smoke detector; that's what the fire department is for.

Pretty solid analogy.

 

[B. Kidd]

Ted's logic is immutable.....as in truth!

Nugent is an idiot.

Item 7 fails as a false comparison fallacy, for example.

I have guns, they are my least used tools. I believe in the 2nd amendment right to keep and bear arms responsibly but i'll be damned if I can even comprehend living in an all-consuming pit of fear that the democrats are going to take all your shit.

Assuming you are correct that Nuge is making a false comparison (you're not), what's your counter-argument? Don't just drop the fallacy you have identified and run. Make an argument, bitch.

You would be stupid to think they won't try. They are communists.

Be sure to double your monthly donation to the NRA to make sure that never happens.

The NRA is too weak for my tastes. I donate to organizations dedicated to preserving my right to own a motherfucking machine gun and to walk the streets of any American city or school carrying said machine gun.

Because they tell us they are going to ban guns....all the time......

Libs pretend as if criminals will follow Gun Control Laws- nothing could be further from the truth.

If someone wants to shoot up a school or something, and they can't go to a gun store- they will just buy the weapons on the Black Market. A gun dealer working out of the trunk of his car or the backroom of a cocktail lounge.

In fact, everyone will have to visit the unlicensed gun dealers for their firearms needs.

Let me tell you about these guys, backroom gun dealers don't do background checks, they will sell to children, ex-cons, anyone with money.

So the questions isn't really whether there will be guns or not- but whether we will have safe guns sold by legitimate business people , or if we will have unsafe guns.
