- Comment on Concealed Handguns Create a Climate of Fear, Gun Industry Research Reveals 1 week ago:
Yeah. With lengthy observation that is NOT going to happen with a robbery. This isn’t a heist movie.
- Comment on Concealed Handguns Create a Climate of Fear, Gun Industry Research Reveals 1 week ago:
I was referring to another common talking point in the same vein which shows deception.
- Comment on Concealed Handguns Create a Climate of Fear, Gun Industry Research Reveals 1 week ago:
That’s why it’s concealed. The robber doesn’t know who has a gun, unless they’re banned, then they’re safe.
- Comment on Concealed Handguns Create a Climate of Fear, Gun Industry Research Reveals 1 week ago:
Because you’re millions of times more likely to be interacting with family and friends than get broken into. One’s a daily occurrence. Also a lot of studies which claim gun ownership is more dangerous to gun owners are deliberately using suicides as part of their numbers.

I used the Forbes article specifically because most will be from what you will call biased sources, but it’s an issue where both sides have their own narrative and looking at the data that one side has while discounting the other is gets you lies.
- Comment on Concealed Handguns Create a Climate of Fear, Gun Industry Research Reveals 1 week ago:
Maybe the people who should be afraid of concealed handguns are the criminals who might be shot by them. That’s the whole point. Defensive gun usage statistics are sparse whether due to people being scared to report what may be seen as a crime on their part, or it not being a tracked statistic in their jurisdiction.

Wasn’t there a mid-century sci-fi story about that? Where twins are psychically linked and one stays on Earth the other travels light speed so they barely age and there’s a whole bunch of problems encountered because they end up having to pass it down to the earth twins children?

- Comment on As a male kinder teacher I agree more needs to be done to protect children. But the solution is not to vilify people like me 1 month ago:
I can tell you why. Male sex offenders are inherently more physical, or at least expected to be. It’s the same reason why rape in many places can only be committed by a man. There’s absolutely female pedophiles and predators, but people either ignore them, or don’t look hard enough to see them. My own personal theory is that female pedos are just as common as male, but the way they get sexual gratification is different so evidence is more common for men.

But don’t you know that all men are rapist pedophiles and all women are perfect motherly protectors?

If the banned system is reset like in a trade-in then even offline games will not work.
- Comment on Nintendo faces legal action over ability to brick Switch 2s whenever they want 2 months ago:
No. If you happen to try to fix it by doing a system wipe you play zero games. It’s literally a brick. Can’t do anything.
