I'm an asswipe for calling out a jackass who chose to throw political commentary on a discussion that was created for prayers on behalf of the families involved. You deserve to be called worse. You are cheap opportunist.

Australia this and Australia that. France has very similar laws to Australia in regards to firearms. Yet that didn't stop the Paris Shootings, I'm sure the victims of that tragedy were like, thank goodness for our strict gun control laws.

In Switzerland gun ownership is extremely high and there's almost no deaths from mass shootings

All you see is violence is because you watch the biased media. They show what they want you see and hear. Very few news sources just report the facts and let you decide. Most news is just politically directed narratives. Throwing an opinion or POV into the news and presenting it as fact is what the American Media does. It isn't news. It is swaying of opinions. That isn't want news is supposed to be, but that is what is it. Journalism is a joke.

Here is a great saying that applies.

If you don't read the news, you're uninformed. If you read the news, you're misinformed.

Read one of my previous statements, saying that all I see is the violence. I don't see the positives as I don't live in the country. So yes my opinion is based on that. And as I stated previously, that's probably short-sighted. So yes, you're probably right.

I could call you a lot worse too, because you've always been a C***.
But that's not the point, you can call me whatever you want, it's still my opinion. And to call people names for voicing their opinion, is just pathetic. Just shows the true you. The bloody pathetic troll you've grown to be. Hope your mother's proud of you


Says the guy who politicized a topic about prayers for the families in Florida. Me calling you out was well deserved. While you are entitled to your opinion, doing so on this topic was completely inappropriate. As I said, only a complete jackass would do so.

As I don't have a vagina, I can't be a *****. And there isn't anything you can call me that will hurt my feelings.

It does seem that you are butthurt though. You seem really agitated? I can lend you my kid's toy shovel and pail, so you can get the sand out.

Define reasonable gun control?

Like background checks?
