That story is obviously a lie. We know that because the Great Guru, Seth, tells us that concealed carry people never use their guns irresponsibly.

Funny, the last time I talked to a mental health professional we spent 15 minutes after the session discussing the benefits and necessities of firearms. It seems that he carries too.

Re-do your maths, Seth.Seth wrote:on the premise that 0.0003% of them are wounded and 0.00002% of them are killed
no one here is going to let you get away with adding a couple of zero's to make the numbers look more in your favour.
And as I calculated earlier, 100,000 people per year receiving a bullet means that, over the average life time, one in 50 Americans are shot. That is not an insignificant number. it is an appallingly high number.

And I don't disagree. What I disagree with is whether or not it says anything at all about penis size. That's the psychobabble part of it. It's just pure rhetoric probably made up by some guy with penis envy. Pot-kettle-black kinda thing.Blind groper wrote:To FBM
As I said, it is probably psychobabble. But it correctly identifies extreme gun lovers as being the wrong side of the line separating sane and not so sane.

You are probably correct, but please keep that under your hat. It is much more fun to use the psychobabble.
