Boy, are you guys going to love this one
I put this in the rant forum mainly because I didn't know where else this fit in on the the other forums.
So, I noticed that quite a few people are starting to try and understand the Orlando shooters motives. And in doing so have thrown out quite a few theories, some of which may hold some water, others, not so much. Of course, in the aftermath of another mass shooting, we have people also trying to defend more gun regulations.
Those two thoughts are what I mean to discuss here. Also, I would like to note that this is more of a "Well duh" tongue in cheek sort of argument in hopes that some actually see the irony of their logic. ( I hold no high hopes on that regard)
So, one of the prevailing theories that seems to be popping up is that the shooter was actually a closeted gay that just couldn't deal with the fact that his father and religion wouldn't allow him to be who he truly was. SO, in order to quell this conundrum, he decided to go shoot up a gay club, manifest his anger so to speak. I suppose that is a possibility. Hell, this wouldn't be the first case of such a thing, and seems to happen when some people can't think rationally.
With that logic, and the possibility that it may be true, I have to ask if you so called, although, not self named, gun-grabbers might actually be unstable yourselves, and possibly hosting thoughts of destruction. And in your self anger, you want to fight that which you are, because society says its not normal. So, ban guns.
I know that it may seem like I am calling anti-gun activists unstable, but I'm actually not. I'm asking a thought provoking question that I hope you see the point of. IF you can't discern the point, then I reckon all logic is mostly lost on you anyway, and I don't argue with idiots.
Feel free to attack all you want, but it only shows terrible reading comprehension.
Flame away!!

Im anti gun and I can tell you straight its not because of any Msn bobbleheads or any other propaganda.
Its because they are tools designed exclusively to kill.
You can play semantics with that statement however you like but its a fact. Guns = death.
This is a pointless argument as pro gunners have said many times that the death toll u guys have is basically an acceptable price to pay for your 2nd ammendment
Stop putting guns in circulation, start taking them off criminals and in a few generations instead of having 6 guns per person in circulation ul have maybe 2 and those with them will think twice about using them due to the fact if there misused they wont be easily replaceable
Someone tell me why this is illogical or unworkable?
