    So what moral difference is there between the person in the slaughterhouse and the person that eats the meat?



    Edit: going to be away for a few hours. My son is visiting and we are going to roast a dead animal on the grill...grrrrrr

    it’s an election with no Democrats, in one of the whitest states in the union, where rich candidates pay $35 for your votes. Or, as Republicans call it, their vision for the future.

    I don't know, they are only at the end of a long chain in the system.

    Not exactly a question that is relevant to gun owning. If I replied that they are morally responsible it would be like saying I am morally responsible for any UK soldier killing in Iraq. He is supposed to be defending me.

    It appears all you do is hurl expletives at people you don't know.
    This is very low class. I think Washington has gotten to you perhaps?
    P.S Your right. I don't know you.
    Dude, in your post (#70) where'd you get that from?

    boab didn't say it so that's why I made reference to your reading comprehension.

They have said to me that if anyone tried to break into their house they would shoot them then pull them inside the house. Apparently that is within the law..

    Given the gun crime rate and mass killings would you
    just answer me one question why is it only in America that people demand the right to carry guns?

    I have never said that hunters are idiots. I said that the mentality of anyone who wants to own a gun must be suspect. There is a vast difference.
    I never said you called hunters idiots. That was a product of MaxOverLord's lack of reading comprehension.

    The demand comes from our Constitution. Everyone has different personal reasons for wanting to own a gun and your idiotic statement grouping them all as mentally suspect speaks volumes to ignorance.

    Now your ignorance is not necessarily a bad thing but it is ignorance. No it is not legal to shoot someone and drag them into the house. It is legal shoot someone that broke into your house which is why they'd pull them in to make it seem like a legal shoot.

    Based on your logic, a person wanting to protect themselves with any weapon is mentally suspect.

    I never said Bob said that. A little more inspection on your reading comprehension perhaps. This is all too childish to be sure. A matter of he said you said but I didn't said that he said what you said I said?

    Nobody replied to my point earlier on. Why is it legal possible to carry a gun but not a flick knife a dagger or a gravity knife(In some states). You could use them to protect yourself.

    Cool I've been past it for awhile now.

    I just wondered where you got that hunters were idiots and it seemed like poor comprehension is all.

    I am not really opinionated about whether people should own guns or not, but I do think that America portrays guns in a very positive way. It is all about the image of having a gun and in the U.S it is apparently 'cool' to own a gun and. In other countries like India, a normal person possessing a gun is seen as something that is very dangerous. I think that the pictures Cho Seung Hui took of himself also helps prove my point. They are all in a sort of 'glorified stature'.

    Some of Cho's 'glorifying' images: Link
