These one in a thousand stories when the other 999 were legitimate are always used like this to help vindicate the narrative that women make it up

The problem is those thousand cases represent a fraction of the around one hundred thousand victims that will never get justice.

    Full on gun nutter nonsense. I grew up poor, I know what happens when you put a gun in a young man's hands. You are fucking clueless, you truly are about the horrors of gun proliferation. We have tens of millions of civilians that know to duck and cover at any given moment because of constant violence. They live in a continuous state of stress.

    The US has been in a constant state of extreme violence because of gun proliferation. Over a million women have been shot by their partner, but don't worry your solution is they shoot back. Double homicide assured.

    I will never forget this family whose father came downstairs and blew his brains out in front of them on Christmas Day...so many stories of tragedy always because of one easily accessible tool. If it were any other product it would have to be safe, but not firearms. At any rate, come back when you grow the fuck up sir.

    Oh God help me. If every women in your made up scenario pulled the trigger against a man SA or raping them there would be 90 million+ dead men.

    My grandmother, mother, my wife, and my daughters have all been SA and raped in their lifetime. Every single women I have ever had the privilege to talk to about this has also been. I am a social worker by trade so I have talked to several hundred.

    Right now there are over four million women that live in fear of gun death everyday. We have lost more civilians to gun violence in the last thirty years than every single soldier we have lost in every single war we have ever been in.

    Not just heterosexuals either. I have met several gay men that fear their partner. If they leave them they are worried they would kill them.

    This is our society. Have fun living with your defense fantasy larping imagination guns solve our problems bullshit.

    I am all for the little guy. I looked up all the stats because of what you said. PS roughly 10 million estimated by end of year, Xbox roughly 2 million by end of year. Gabecube maybe around 60k per month with a total in 2026 of around 400k units sold. That will be roughly half of Xbox sales if they performed similarly the entire year.

    Impressive start, but the PS blows them out of the water.

    As long as they enjoy (forced labor) it, then it is not slavery is not a very good argument. Even outside of prison wage slavery is a real problem. Having someone work in prisons for decades and then released with barely anything to show for it is the very definition of exploitation. Likely leading to more recidivism since without the capital crime is the easiest way to support oneself after missing out on society for decades.

    How many people have you lost to gun violence? I have lost several. How many woman do you know who were raped by gunpoint? I know several. How many people that have guns don't properly store them? Everyone I have ever met save a couple responsible ones. For every responsibile owner there are a hundred that keep their guns loaded under their pillow.

    I have read what you are saying thousands of times. It gets old.

    Sounds like you don't know what the fuck you are talking about. If you think violence and murder makes us better then maybe.. just maybe... You should take your own advice.

    If you ignore the 2nd amendment people are fighting for the government and guns are the oppressive force then you clearly are a gun nutter, no reason to talk with you anymore.

    Please just stop with the nonsense about restricting rights and bans. They work, they always have. We can ban transgender but we can't ban a gun highlights the stupidity we face.
