Wearing a gun is not brandishing it. It's not "going for the iron," which would involve drawing. I also never said I "opted immediately" to use the gun. I happened to be wearing it at the time,...

Actually, I also take exception to the trivialization of violence, but that occurs whether guns are onscreen or not. Katanas and bows also get similar portrayals, with movies making death by katana...

I suggested no such thing. Furthermore, wearing a gun while you politely let a potential criminal know you're alert to his actions and not worth his trouble is not a threat. Such actions also do not...

Actually, if you go back and read, you'll note that I never said it was "safe." Furthermore, shooting at a gas station just to prove a point would not only be ridiculous, it would be illegal.

You...

Seriously, stop wishing incarceration or death upon innocent people. It makes you look like the sort of person who probably shouldn't be trusted with a gun.

Trivialize the violence, but also grossly overestimate the capabilities of the action hero's firearms. So people see a black polymer scary looking gun and think it must do everything the black, scary...

Wow. And people think legal gun owners are violent crazies.

BTW, why would a legal gun owner want to test a theory that criminals have already proven? A lot of recent shootings have taken place at...

Yes, you did make such claims. You claimed that everything I said about the history of gun control in Ireland was, in your exact words, "Bullshit! Bullshit! Bullshit!" Then you didn't back that up by...

So then maybe you can enlighten me about the history of gun control in Ireland.

I hope you didn't put any money on that bet.

The only thing I've done for the "old country" is to get involved with the Ulster Project. I think the people fighting on both sides are completely...

No, they aren't. If you choose freely to speak English, you're not being forced. If your language is targeted in a campaign of cultural genocide, then yes, you are forced.

And I have asked for the...

But that is also why I don't consider Ireland an English-speaking country. And choosing (instead of being forced) to speak English when the English were trying to drive Irish into extinction did not...

The customer base could be a lot broader if we didn't alienate female fans or would-be fans.

Walsh, if you have to speak a language other than your native tongue simply to avoid discrimination in employment, etc., you are being forced.

Because obviously anyone who supports the Second Amendment is a Protestant fundamentalist Christian stereotype, right?

They might as well ban childhood.

Trying to get myself in good enough shape to get over there....

No. I've been ignoring you because it seemed a lot nicer than telling you exactly what I think, but now I have to set the record straight. You only imagined that my tendency to not consider Ireland...

Tailgaters, people who disregard red lights or stop signs, and tan cars, especially Chevy Impalas. I wouldn't consider them phobias, though. My fear and dislike of these is entirely rational.

I agree. It's like combining Nightcrawler with the words "winsome" or "awesome." The only fault I might find with it is that it may be redundant.

Making assumptions again. Not all people who have bad luck hunting are bad shots. In fact, most I've known are very good shots. Other factors come into play that may simply mean animals that might...

I would agree with that. It makes more sense to let the issue be handled at more at the community level. As much as I like the idea of a permit being recognized nation wide (which can eliminate the...

Ugh! So sorry that happened. Moral of the story for us parent-types I guess is to keep our noses clean especially on our kids' birthdays.

It's not really a snap judgement to observe that it appears women in comic books are mostly drawn to appeal to heterosexual male sexual fantasies while male characters are drawn to reflect male power...

Not necessarily. If you were going around pantsless in an area where such is legal or otherwise under circumstances where such is accepted (such as if you were on a long road trip and had to take a...
