Hickock 45, gun culture 2.0

[HectorEscaton]

I am neither religious nor do I claim anything about the theory of evolution except that it is a theory.

Am I wrong?

What's that quote from the Big Lebowski...?

Ah the innocent thread that causes Calguns members to eat their own......

[ChuckDizzle]

Nah, I stopped bothering with context when saying "it's a theory" earns one the label of being a creationist.

I never said that, read it again slowly and carefully.

Ah the innocent thread that causes Calguns members to eat their own......

Ain't it the truth.

I jumped off this train when I saw the bridge ahead was just catching fire.

Fully involved now and soon to be locked by the local pezzonovante.

I don't know about anyone else but I'm looking for the untaxed alcohol stores here in CA. I can't believe I missed those. Any in the Riverside area?

Here's where he loses me. The politics matter! If you love guns...and even if you love gun rights...but you voted for Hillary Clinton...you are the enemy. You can't say you are pro gun, pro 2A, pro BoR, and then vote for people who are trying to eliminate 2A at every turn. Now granted if you like guns, there's more hope for you that you will one day see the error of your voting ways. But until that actually happens, you are still THE PROBLEM.

Yeah, that's going to bring in a lot of people and convince them to rethink their ideas, excellent plan you hatched there, diabolical.

Very well played. Very well indeed.

[BigPun762]

then why don't you call it the fact of evolution? you should petition the scientific community to do so.

Because if you understand what a scientific theory truly means, there is no need to call it something else. A scientific theory is not the same as your own theory.

We also have "Newton's theory of gravitation" so do you believe gravity is also just a "theory" because of the word?

Well, do you realize Newton's theory is incorrect?

Alcohol is so cheap in California compared to much of the rest of the country that it's the last thing I would complain about. I have relatives that buy booze at Costco here and fly back with it.

As far as predicting the behavior of macroscopic objects goes, I think it's a little unfair to call it "incorrect." Incomplete is probably a better description. We still don't really know how gravity works.

It's a model that approximates the actual observed behavior, but it's still wrong. Extrapolate that to the other argument as you see fit.

Everybody has their own priorities. If the 2A is your number one priority your probably voting republican. If the 2A is your third or fourth priority you may be voting democrat.

[champu]

...yet you and a few others are trying to create a false equivalency with something you consider "a bad idea" in order to essentially say "well, the other side is doing it too."

I've not said or implied in any of my posts in this thread that anything is equivalently bad to what the Democrats do to the second amendment when they have control of legislative bodies.

I have to assume you just skimmed my posts quickly and would do the same to any further elaboration, so have a good weekend.

That's all a theory ever is. Care to elaborate how it's wrong?
