I did answer your question. It matters because it is used as a agenda to make the public feel like we have random mass shootings daily. It %100 matters.
This is why the GVA is bunk crap, because it twists the truth.
I've never said that there should be no discussion of gun control. I just point out how little logic is behind the gun control that's proposed, because it's not based in reality.
No. No you didn't. I also didn't ask you and I don't want your opinion because I know what your opinion is already.
I mean I did answer your question, you where just hoping for someone else to give you a different answer.
Correct, that's why I asked them and not you.
And they answered it, unlike your claim to have answered it.
They literally said the same thing I did.
They didn't, but go ahead and claim that.
This is a civil comment pointing out that squid has mod on several instances and likes to goad people into arguments and then ban them. Sorry for being uncivilized before <3

I have no idea why you think those two are the same answers. However, the bigger issue was your attempting to shut down conversation before it started with your initial reply to my question:
That was a non-answer in response to my question:
What "we need to do" had nothing to do with what I asked, but it did attempt to shut down a conversation no one was having before it started.
I'm sure you'll have some sort of lame excuse for why what you said really did somehow answer that question that didn't ask about what we need to do or why something happened.
