Read it again, but this time in your mind imagine Morgan Freeman saying it.
That will make it all better.

It was as you say more sarcasm, with no useful comments on the subject being discussed. I expected more from staff on this forum obviously I shouldn't have. As for being humorous, don't give up your day job.That was humorous sarcasm, Sheldon
if you don't do what I do, you're gonna DIE DIE DIE!...ect., etc.,...
OK, since you're a little bit too.... staid... to get the point... I'll explain it clearly, and slowly...
The simple fact is, virtually no one who carries a gun will ever use it.
The "gotta have multiple reloads/multiple guns for multiple shots/multiple targets, if you don't, you've a fool with a death wish," is, at best, an overreaction. At worst, it's paranoia.

There is a point at which further serious discussion is a joke
Making logical, reasonable observations like that will get you killed on the streets......after 5 pages of back and forth (aka beating it to death) and the only consistent things are revolvers and semis all malfunction for some people and never do for others, all do it differently and everyone has a different idea of how much ammo is enough, I say,
"Lighten up, Francis!"
There is a point at which further serious discussion is a joke, and if you can't see this, I hope there are other things in your life that bring you joy.
you're gonna forget the safety and DIE, you're gonna shoot SA and DIE! You're gonna run out of ammo and DIE, if you don't do what I do, you're gonna DIE DIE DIE!...ect., etc.,...
Heard it all, haven't died yet, walk your own path, and let others do the same.
Why carry car or auto insurance, why have smoke detectors, blah blah blah.
The point is to be prepared, but not to turn into a paranoid prepper.
At the point it becomes 'only a fool XXX' is the point that it tips.
Why do you think it's called the firing line?I don't understand the level of agitation and excitement, near name calling, and the casting of accusations of mendacity that this topic has generated. The agitation of some contributors over OP's report worries me. - If one gets that excited over something like this simple discussion in a sanitary, non threatening, chat forum, perhaps he shouldn't be carrying a firearm, as he may be a danger to himself or others?
Good we agree again, I did not say any of the above.It's the inflexible stupidity of YOU MUST HAVE XXXX OR YOU'LL DIE SCREAMING that I disagree with
