  1. No, I'm not. Ive never posted anything there before and there is a very good chance I never will again. It's means for me to speak my mind. Maybe one last time before I die. I don't need anyone to make me feel better about what I do. And I certainly don't give a **** what some close minded, high and mighty princess thinks about me without bothering to listen to a ****ing word I'm saying. So many sick hateful people here. Some of you still going on and on attacking me. For what? To make yourself feel superior? Some of you are just ****ing assholes. Mods... Is this the community you wanted to build? If so, good job. Thanks for reminding me why I left. This place is a cesspool full of assholes vying to be the top turd. I feel for the good people who stay here. I really have enjoyed getting to know some of you. I missed that part. Some of you I like and even admire very much. But this place is toxic and some of you really can kiss my ass. With apologies to those who shared kind words and asked some great questions... I'm done.
  2. This is me pouring my guts out. Its really uncomfortable for me to watch. There are no ulterior motives other than to get both sides talking. I thought some people would like to see and understand the laws surrounding the gun the shooter used and ended up covering several other subjects along the way. It's long, full of me fumbling for words and for me very awkward but it is what it is and this may be my last chance to say it. If you want to judge me, judge me for this. This is who I am and what I believe.
  3. That's it. I'm done. If all goes well tomorrow, maybe I'll be back to see if anyone has any good questions or discussions about the topic. If not, It was nice knowing some of you and I appreciate the good thoughts. Those of you who just want to attack me and question my motivation... My dying words are you can kiss my ass.
  4. Lo I was trying to make a point of simple human nature for us to make personal connections. I guess that's too complicated for some people. **** like this is why I left. Some of you children want to make everything personal. You don't like me? I don't give a ****. Right now I don't care much for you either. Do you have a rational comment on the subject? Is there a point that I made you disagree with? Why? Do you have a solution? NO? Then shut up and let the adults talk.
  5. And I've answered it several times. AGAIN.... Why does it matter why I did this or when? Is it not enough that I'm doing it? I really don't give a crap what you think of me. Can we talk about the issues?
  6. We definitely have a problem We need to identify those driven by hatred or mental health issues and separate them from the tools used to do harm. Start with universal and improved background checks and the mental health infrastructure to deal with those with problems or bad intentions. I'll be the first to say that most gun owners disagree with me. If you watch my video you will see that I have a serious problem with Thoughts and prayers without action ( F you Ted Cruz). I'm not sure what it will take but we can take but the only way we are going to get gun owners involved is to remove their fear that you want to take their guns. My argument to gun owners is that if you want to have sensible laws get involved and stop just saying no.
  7. 'Let me ask you something. If you saw your car used to win a race, wouldnt you notice and say wow that's pretty cool, I won the same car! I Wached Sicario (spelling is wrong Im sure but dont care) and in one scene where tho woman is attacked they showed a bathroom mirror exactly like the one in my bathroom. It's a simple stupid thing but it made a connection. AND... While I have tried to not focus on my health issues because I'm not here for your pity, dont you think it's possible that facing my own mortality makes me want to speak out one last time as well? What the F**** does it matter what my motivation was. Why the F**** are you so obsessed with me rather the subject? Maybe about 2-5% It's usually the more casual gun owners or new gun owners who should have had better training. There is a culture among most serious gun owners to be responsible. idiots and assholes are ridiculed.
  8. Whatever dude. Life is too short for me to give a damn what you think. I'm trying to do something, PERIOD. FULL STOP. You can either get on board or piss off. NOW you are blocked.
  9. I haven't mad a single assumption about you. Your words tell me what I need to know. You want a fight. You want to demonize me. The attitude you have shown here is the problem. Both sides do it. I'm sick of it.
  10. I also tell gun owners that while Airbags and seatbelts don't stop all deaths they do prevent many more from happening and we need to do something other than thoughts and prayers.
  11. Again, you ASSUME i did not care. YOU ARE WRONG. Apparently you are not interested in a rational discussion and only want judge others that you do not know. Maybe you should watch my video. I'll be back in a few. Time to upload that video.
  12. Great Question! Stop treating gun owners as evil people. And the best start would be to say "Look I don't want to take away your guns. How can we compromise to help reduce gun violence?" If you watch the video you will see that I plea for gun owners to listen to the other side and get involved in finding solutions. There is currently a severe ammo shortage and prices are very high. Demand has not decreased at all,
  13. You seem to assume all gun owners are heartless people. I resent your characterization of me. WTF have I said that would make you believe I don't care? Every shooting hurts. Owning the same gun just adds a personal connection. That's just human nature. AR15's and other semi auto versions of military guns are not "mill spec" even if they use many mil spec parts. That would involve full auto and in many cases restricted ammunition. I'm a pragmatist. There are millions and millions of ARs and other such weapons (some FAR more dangerous) in the hands of law abiding citizens. You don't hear or think about them because those people are not using them to hurt others. The REALITY is that the nation is divided almost in half on the subject and gun owners have rights too. The REALITY is that no matter what you personally believe should be done, there are millions of americans that would start a civil war if you try to take their guns away. I am not one of them and I don't agree but I recognize the truth. If you think gun deaths are bad now, try taking them away from people. As a pragmatist, I prefer to find solutions that both sides might be able to agree on and that would actually do something to reduce deaths.
  14. Pretty much. I hate the NRA. I hate their tactics and believe they do more harm than good even for gun rights. The more they act like assholes the more anti-gun people they create.
