You really need all that firepower?

[Walkalong]

Only by people who don't know what trolling is. Everyone else calls it "debate".

It can be a very fine line, and you are teetering on the edge IMO. Definitely in the gray are in the middle.

Possibly, and that is just a taunt.

That's apparently a matter of perspective.

Lets say they ban all AR's from the hunting fields. We will assume they stop all AR's from being sold but we can keep the ones we have.

Why? I don't think anybody here has expressed any support for a ban. I simply expressed an understanding and illustration of why people might look askance at military-styled semi-autos for hunting. You don't have to accept it or agree with it; it's just a difference in opinion.

I think you are reading between the lines and discovering things that don't exist in my posts. I'd go back and read the thread again, carefully. I think it is a good illustration of my contention that any dissent among the ranks, on this particular topic, inspires immediate and strident defensiveness.

You Sir, are an excellent angler. Perhaps you should frequent a fishing board ??!!!?!

Yep.

I am merely trying to show why we must not fall into the antis trap, which is the side you are "debating".

 

[Robert Wilson]

You've made that point, and I understand it. But I do not consider it the main point of the discussion.

At any rate, I've apparently been dismissed as a troll, which I suppose is about what I should have expected on the topic. So enjoy the rest of your day.

I do.

If anyone has "dismissed" you, it will be for your content and demeanor.

Here is your answer Mr. Wilson. TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCEMENT ! Ten years ago I got "looks" and jeers. Everytime I was in the field, the Game Warden just had to look it over and check regulation compliance. This year ??????? Everyone has one in camoflage in calibers unheard of in the platform just a few years ago.

Calculator or PC ?

Tossing opinions back and forth is just that: Opinionating. It's not debate, since debates usually present facts for discussion.

And so goodnight Sweet Prince and all that...
