And weapons are tools. We've come full circle. Appeal to emotions all you want. That's all your argument boils down to. It's fuckin hilarious to me that you seem to think this argument is about whether or not guns are a good thing. That's NEVER been the argument here. Guns aren't good or bad, they're simply tools. Treat them with respect and seek actual understanding, and maybe we can actually effectively regulate them.
Nope. Weapons are weapons, tools are tools.
Pretty sure definitionally speaking, you're wrong, as evidenced above.
No. An AR-15 is not in the same category of a claw hammer.
Yes it can be, both are objects.
Objects =\= tools
All thumbs are fingers, not all fingers are thumbs
You clearly don't care to listen to any of the heaps of evidence that points to the contrary. If you're not arguing with the intention of actually hearing anything your opposition is saying, why argue? Just like wasting time?
I have seen none of these heaps.
Because you choose not to look. That's the whole point. You refuse to engage with anything.
Guess I have to post those four pictures again. Maybe you will figure it out next time
You sound angry.
Even if I were it wouldn't be a big deal since I don't own a weapon, only tools. Unlike your boy Rittenhouse
You make a lot of assumptions about me based on nothing. Not a good look.
By many you mean one. Not trying to defend your argument about guns being tools I noticed
Why would I defend it when it hasn't been attacked?
Yes it has, just like your boy Rittenhouse did to those protesters
Mate the closest thing you've done to making a counter argument is say "nuh uh!" Lol. And again, you're making baseless assumptions about me.
