New Zealand: "Our gun laws will change." Why them and not us?

Generally one would expect one to express one’s opinion as one’s own.

Yes, but that’s all you have … opinions and feelings.

@westaussie

My, my you do presume to be able to speak for a lot of people (including myself).

I’m not speaking for them, I am observing what they did.

[westaussie]

I trust you continue to keep up with the March for our Lives’s programmes to ensure more and more young people enrol and vote in the 2020 elections.

That’s a cowardly way to answer that question.

I own up to my political and social beliefs. You should do the same.

For example, I support abortion in the cases of rape, incest, and to protect the mother’s life.

I am opposed to abortion for the sake of convenience.

I don’t feel any shame in admitting that. I own up to my own hypocritical views on abortion.

Do the same.

Here’s the thing, I am against abortion but the woman’s right to choose is more important than the fetus’s life.

A very cold attitude toward human lives.

Yep I care about my sisters choice than lives I don’t know.

It isn’t a “choice” but rather a human life.

Nope its still a choice.

So is murder.

Good thing abortion isn’t murder.

Why would it not be? This should be good.

It would be a very strange action, given your stated view, for you to create a thread querying why the USA can’t change its gun laws given that New Zealand’s response to the Christchurch terrorist attack indicated that they would change their gun law.

Would it? Strange, given your (collective) proclivity for moral grandstanding and tending other people’s knittin’.

I trust when you do your knitting you use pure Australian merino wool.

He does seem to spend a lot of time telling us what would be best for us.

[westaussie]

That is an erroneous claim. To put it in perspective: according to the statistics you have posted 4.6k posts, 342 days visited and 114k posts read and I have posted 2.3k, 126 days visited and read 26.4k posts. I can’t provide Sneaky’s post count because that statistic is not available to me.

It is not his fault he is very intelligent nor that you are simply regurgitating previous erroneous information.

We’ve dealt with your feelings before. It’s not new.

That’s not a valid reason to commit a homicide. The baby has nowhere else to be and if the woman didn’t want it there, she should not have put it there. And also, that is not a valid response to the question I asked. What defense does a fetus have when it mother’s hired killer comes for it?

Unless the woman had sex specifically to get pregnant she didn’t put it there, and I said NONE.

So it’s true … you don’t care about any lives except those killed by gun shot.

Nope not true, apparently for you there is only I care or I don’t care at all with nothing in between.

They are marching against the Constitution and I don’t expect them to ever reach the numbers necessary to pass an Amendment. In the mean time, more States are passing open carry and no-permit concealed carry laws. The tide has turned against the marchers.

[Samm]

You have made it perfectly clear, if a person is not killed with a gun, you could not care less about them. I don’t know why you even pretend otherwise.

And it still keeps being not true.

[westaussie]

You are mistaken in equating quantity with quality.

[westaussie]

The 2018 mid-term results speak directly to the exact opposite to your claim. Also, the NRA has been significantly diminished as a political force.

I don’t believe that representatives of the March for our Lives like David Hogg have advocated for a revocation of the 2A. That is a furphy spread by the pro-gun lobby which has no basis in fact.

[westaussie]

No amount of foot stomping will improve the veracity of certain claims and decrees posted on this forum by those who deny that nigh on 40,000 deaths in 2018 is something that needs action.

[WuWei]

Less than 10,000. Please stop spreading false information.

[westaussie]

Surely notwithstanding the incorrect claim you meant to use fewer rather than less?
