GUNS

    Your quote from Deuteronomy is taken out of context if you feel you can use a gun to take out criminals.                                                                                   https://thebiblesays.com/commentary/deut/deut-7/deuteronomy-71-6/            You took that from the English Standard Version,....not the King James Bible, and certainly not the Vatican Bible. 

Ronald….the adults are speaking

We were speaking about god telling the Israelites to go commit genocide it had nothing to do with guns

Why do ppl with no knowledge of guns want to discuss them?

Gee, if the Bible were so important, you'd think God would make one good version.

Instead there are a million versions, people disagree on what things mean, and no one even speaks the language it was originally written in.

It's almost as if it were just another man made religion. Hmm.jpg

   "Why do ppl with no knowledge of guns want to discuss them"?                                   Bacause people like you use the Bible to rationalize your sinful actions to justify you're use of guns.

How much is there to know about guns anyway?

My dad took me and my brothers out shooting when we were about 12 years old. It's not exactly rocket science.

Exactly llama…we agree.

Very easy tool almost impossible to screw up and not a danger to anyone unless you are evil or completely incompetent.

If you’re the type of person who leaves a gun loaded and accessible where kids can find it you are likely the same person who would leave rat poison on the counter or prescription drugs near candy

I don’t use the Bible to rationalize anything Ronnie Boo Boo we got into a side Convo that had nothing to do with guns

And I think it would be silly to get rid of all guns. I'd be fine with more regulations, training requirements, that sort of thing.

   This is what Lllama said......                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        And then YOU posted this......                                                                                                                                                                                                                         So,.....in a gun thread...... using an obscure version of a book thousands of yrs old......you feel God's words & actions makes it OK for you to use open carry in crime ridden cities.  Llama was using irony to make fun of your Bible reference. You then went on to ask him if he ever heard of God instructing Hebrews to commit genocide.  In post 753, you said......"your thinking emotionally".     Who's thinking emotionally now?   Lets not use God's words in a "gotcha" moment.  Saint Peter was crucified for preaching abstinence.  Its a good thing the Vatican, and the world didn't listen to him either heh?  Where would we be if nobody ever had sex with any female ever. 

                                                                     

Ronnie….don’t do this to yourself.

I’m begging you

    I'm just saying the Bible,.....the REAL Bible is full of mysteries and you're WAY too ignorant to solve them.                                                                                                                                             Ecumenical scholars have spent a lifetime studying that book. We use words like God,.....genocide,.....guns.....as a code of armor.  You use them at parties, and social media threads as a punchline because deep down inside you want to understand God......You NEED to understand God. You frickin people.....all you did here today was weaken a Chess.com thread.

Please, let us not fight over religion.

I am a practicing Muslim, yet do you see me preaching my religion here?

I may disagree with several tenants of Christianity, and you may disagree with Islam, but we do not have to fight over it.

For you your religion, and for me mine.

 In the immortal words of Dr Danna Scully I'm just getting my ya-ya's out.                                               Merry Christmas.                                                               

That's not a gun. This is a gun. Yep, I own one of these and it's a real blast to shoot. Literally and figuratively.

People that don’t (or can’t) own guns are really missing out.

In response to Alcervix, the communist:

Nobody cares WHAT cars or hammers were DESIGNED to do. If they kill more than guns WELCOME TO REALITY. Just because they were designed to do something else that doesn’t suddenly supersede reality.

Nobody cares if guns are PRIMARILY used for self defense. You have to add words to your wacky crap in order for your point to make sense. Guns ARE used for self defense and that’s enough.

Many states passed concealed carry because THATS WHAT THE PEOPLE OF THAT STATE WANT. We aren’t RULED by you or Joe Biden or Donald Trump. The people vote for the politicians and the politicians intact the will of the people. Simple concept.

And your most clueless point: GUNS ARE MESNT TO BE IN THE HANDS OF CITIZENS TO PROTECT AGAINST A TYRANNICAL GOVT.

It’s the TOP REASON.

Now some dummy, like you, with no experience with either guns or warfare will tell us how it’s not possible for an armed populace to resist the military….after watching for YEARS the combined might of the greatest military on earth fail to defeat cave dwelling PRIMITIVES let alone urban guerrilla warfare against a trained and armed populace with a BILLION guns and unlimited resources and internet connections within the most advanced society on earth.

You know NOTHING about armed resistance against a military the entire US military would be SHITTING ITS PANTS if they had to quell a large amount of American citizens.

The only way POSSIBLE would be to LEVEL vast parts of cities and roadways making whatever would be dictator a ruler of NOTHING in the end. It would never happen.

You can’t quell a bunch of large drinking leftists from throwing fire bombs and causing BILLIONS of dollars in damage and you think you’re going to stop 10 million ex military with unlimited weaponry and resources with intimate knowledge of infrastructure.

Wake up son this isn’t your strong suit.

The 2nd amendment exists to prevent YOUR GOVERNMENT FROM TURNING USURPATIOUS.

Can you not respond to anyone without insults, arrogance, feigned machismo and political nonsense?

 

No

I used to be able to until ppl started doing it to me

You’re probably too lazy to check this very thread but since I’ve posted(with insulting anyone) I’ve had ppl insult me personally even bring my wife and family into it.

Do no, I don’t think I’ll play nice find someone else who gives a damn what you think

I mean for Christ’s sake stop being lazy and look at my first post #524 and see I’m nothing but a gentleman trying to tell people with no experience in self defense how difficult it is to shoot an attacker armed with a knife.

I get jumped immediately and notice YOU are nowhere to be found when I do. Only when the BAD GUY starts to be a jerk right back to 2-3 notoriously rude ppl that you have to drag yourself in and admonish me right?
