When you get into an argument with somebody, don't go to your car and pull out a shotgun and shoot them...

Being wrong really sucks, doesn't give anybody the excuse to harm other people. Sometimes you have to suck it up. And carrying a loaded shotgun in your car is illegal too.


PS
For those of you that will interpret Being wrong as for being leftist in the political continuum, you are wrong... :fencing:

Well I mean this is America we're talking about. Take any problem, add guns, and it becomes a bigger problem. So many people harp on fixing mental health, but I came up with a pretty good argument for why guns are the problem.

I watched this movie called Thank You For Your Service. Its about three PTSD stricken veterans who are trying to get help. But the system in place makes them wait weeks for even an appointment. And they have minimal spots for mental health care. Lots of hurting veterans either kill themselves or lose it because of the wait. We're talking about a country that can't even provide mental health care for their soldiers, how will they be able to do it the populace, which is not covered by any health care?

That's just the American way (Shrugs). (Saw an American saying that, I am just quoting her)

Make guns, sell guns, create terrorist groups, sell them guns, then make more guns to kill these groups, cartels etc. Uncle Sam is happy.

Yeah....and then they finally get an appointment, they are dealing with a doctor who doesn't have a month of practice under their belt, never been in a war....and has an over eager mind set, with a pre-determined diagnosis.
They will start at the beginning, when you were a youngster....and tell you how your loving parents ,were nothing but shitbags to you.

Ummm....yeah ok ?......You want to talk about trauma ? How bout that time when some of those white turbans came over the hill, and shot the shit out of us?
What does your freaking text book say about that?

The shooting was in Toronto.... The being wrong part is to admit your bad.... and don't do anything stupid..... like the shotgun thing in Toronto.....

it goes to show that people will want to talk about what they want to talk about.

the American capital system is about making profit. Arms dealers are all about making profit.... They just need people to use their products.... cynical.... but its too easy, as humans were so ready to see the bad in others and use violence to correct it..... its so wrong.... but hey profit/money is involved..... that makes it okay.... ask your politicians .....:fencing:
