Spent three hours there last night. Talk about rude. WOW.
A running discussion about "why do you need an assault weapon" was very engaging.
Several others (besides myself) attempted to explain that there was no such thing as a TEC-9 Assault Rifle. I tried to explain that in certain circumstances, like the LA riots, that an assault weapon may be the only thing standing between you and a mob trying to murder you by burning your business while you are on the roof.
The person that started the thread (Ran_12) finally gave in after my two senternce post:
"I need an assault weapon to prevent a large group of criminals from assaulting me. Can I make it any clearer?"
I have never in my life been attacked as I was during that posting session. There are people who idolize that woman, even though she admits to being brought up in what I call a "Polly Anna" lifestyle. Nothing ever goes wrong in her world. Come home from school and plop down in front of the TV and click on the drivel absorption switch.
A sorry comment on our society. Closed minds following an uninformed idiot.
