So this Bluestater wants to argue about gun control.
Starts from an emotional position, then when I use logic, and facts, tries to pull out a 20 year old medical journal with low sampling involved by biased doctors.
Claims "You just proved my point."
(shakes head) You know what? I have changed my mind on many things over the years. From pot usage, to gay marriage, to political party loyalty.
All based in facts, logic, and statistics.
WHAT KIND OF MORONIC MINDSET DO PROGRESSIVE/COMMUNIST POSSESS THAT WILL NOT MAKE THEM ACKNOWLEDGE WHEN THEY ARE INCORRECT!?
I know it happens, we've all discussed it, but it's almost the feeling of seeing a sick animal, and wanting to put them down for their own sake.
Trips me out.

Re: Trips me out.
Strong emotional feelings or personal convictions are the culprit imo.
Im sure there are multiple issues/things/subjects that we all feel strong convictions on that, even with evidence to the contrary of our own personal beliefs or convictions, we ain't budging. I ain't saying it's right, just attempting to understand it as well.

They should add to that - IF YOU CAN'T CONVINCE THEM SCREAM "RACIST" AND SHUT THE ARGUMENT DOWN.
Progressives/Liberals - Promoting tyranny and a defenseless people since 1913.

YEP! Right out of that playbook! We should copy that, and post it in EVERY comment by an anti-gun person.
If you remove their shadow, they're cast into the light.
Blueprint for all civilian disarmament campaigns:
Key Messaging Principles:
ALWAYS FOCUS ON EMOTIONAL AND VALUE-DRIVEN ARGUMENTS ABOUT GUN VIOLENCE, NOT THE POLITICAL FOOD FIGHT IN WASHINGTON OR WONKY STATISTICS.
TELL STORIES WITH IMAGES AND FEELINGS.
CLAIM MORAL AUTHORITY AND "THE MANTLE OF FREEDOM".
EMPHASIZE THAT EXTRAORDINARILY DANGEROUS, "MILITARY-STYLE WEAPONS ARE NOW WITHIN EASY REACH ACROSS AMERICA".
EMPHASIZE THAT AMERICA HAS WEAK GUN LAWS AND DON’T ASSUME THAT PEOPLE KNOW THAT.
CHALLENGE THE NRA ON YOUR TERMS, NOT THEIRS.
