    Will a BB gun penetrate 12 gauge wire?

    How sturdy do you think the wire is? Maybe you could tie some cord to each end of one of those cheap wire saws, lob it over, and do some cutting :confused:

    Hidden Anti-Gun message in Cracker Jack Box?

    As a child I read that when Lincoln was young he shot a turkey and found he didn't like killing. Googled it:

    Worth of a restraining order

    It's less wordy, which is good. Still not quite spot-on, though. I like the concept. A couple of ideas I got from the poster (they aren't really worded like punchlines, more observations): Restraining order + pistol = prepared against stalker Which one would you trust to stop a...

    Worth of a restraining order

    The punchline is a little too wordy, IMHO. How about Restraining orders are worthless if not enforced. or Restraining orders don't enforce themselves.

    pro-gun AND pro-microstamping?

    Seeing as how the practical effects of the CA microstamping legislation are as follows: 1) Indefinite but likely minimal effect vis-a-vis promised, positive crime-fighting effects because - (a) As long as handgun models stay on the the roster, they are exempt from microstamping...

    It's the Devil's Advocate Thread

    Kudos for making people think reflectively and/or articulate their sentiments. You pulled off the 'asinine anti' part pretty well :evil:

    It's the Devil's Advocate Thread

    You've already posited your argument, which is a far cry from it being established as such. Guns were for killing. Whether that is their statistically greatest use in the U.S. is highly doubtful. So if I shoot at really large or really small targets I'm not practicing killing skills? I...

    It's the Devil's Advocate Thread

    Incredibly poor argument. Ever heard of repeat offenders? How about convicted felons and sex predators? Not only is your second statement questionable, but it falls decidedly outside the realm of reality.

    It's the Devil's Advocate Thread

    The D.A. :evil: is either unable or unwilling to recognize that sport shooting is analogous to fencing: a discipline largely divorced from its martial ancestry, despite some overlap in developed skill sets.

    Pithy. Maybe you could be a bit more articulate and a bit less proverbial?

    It's the Devil's Advocate Thread

    The implication of your assertion here is extreme. I guess chess is practicing killing as well.

    There is a statistical inverse correlation between per capita firearms ownership and crime levels in the U.S.

    Attack from distance, yes. They are contact weapons. Attack multiple victims at close quarters? Firearms require more focus to aim and shoot vs gross motor movement for contact weapons. Difference in real-world recovery time is negligible in many scenarios. You can still only engage one...

    It's the Devil's Advocate Thread

    Are you arguing for banning firearms or other lethal weapons as well?

    It's the Devil's Advocate Thread

    Wrong. Its potential lethality is just very low. I suppose you support the use of less lethal weapons such as knuckle-dusters, billy clubs, saps, blackjacks, and batons?

    It's the Devil's Advocate Thread

    Your logic here is dubious. There are an estimated 250+ million firearms in the United State and tens of millions of gun owners. The total incidence of firearms-related deaths is minuscule in comparison. Billions of rounds of ammunition are sold annually. Statistically, it seems that...
