I will not support this dude because he is progun - Futo because:
1. I actually think he may have committed a sexually harassing act.
2. His argument was so tactically stupid as
to weaken support for us. (I would support the right to say stupid things if it was not hateful).
The tool argument could be made better and in a manner than is more convincing.
If his goal was to convince people using his argument, let me ask you:
Who was his target audience?
Did he change any minds?
Did he have the side effect of suggesting
that gun owners are rather ridiculous?
I work in the target audience, academics and
can ask - I can find no one outside of gun fora that think this was a convincing argument. At best, I get people who are not progun thinking he is an idiot. We have a strong progun group at work and we all think that he was not productive.
The sexual connotation of the argument weakens the logic that might be behind it.
So if he is such a brilliant tactician, where are the praises for his argument except here.
There have been other cases of proRKBA folks getting critiiczed at their school. They have won court cases based on academic freedom and the 1st Amend. They didn't result to childish vulgarity.
So since I work on the playing field, Futo, you don't know where the bases are in this game.
I convince people, this guy didn't help me.
