    Glad to see you understand that what’s a necessity is to solve the other issues that lead to violence, so we agree that guns aren’t a necessity to the vast majority of people, some just make the choice to want a gun to protect themselves while others don’t (proof that guns aren’t needed).

    Good talk 👍

      Lol, no, me making fun of your ridiculous definition of “need” is the complete opposite of agreeing. I prefer the definition the rest of the world uses, y’know, the nondelusional people.

      https://www.wordnik.com/words/need

      noun A condition or situation in which something must be supplied in order for a certain condition to be maintained or a desired state to be achieved. noun Something required or wanted; a requisite. noun Necessity; obligation. noun A condition of poverty or misfortune. intransitive verb To be under the necessity of or the obligation to. intransitive verb To have need of; require. intransitive verb To have an obligation (to do something). intransitive verb To be subject (to an action) by obligation. intransitive verb To want to be subject to. intransitive verb To be in need or want. intransitive verb To be necessary.

      Not one of those mentions “will die without.” That’s you. You aren’t the arbiter of definitions no matter what your delusions of grandeur convince you of.

              OOOHHH I get it, I don’t agree with your point so you must mean you’ve come around to see that the definition of the word itself actually doesn’t support your argument at all and now you agree with me.

                I thought you agreed with me after proving times and times again that guns aren’t a necessity, funny that… It’s funny because all that you said pointed to that from the get go… Weird.

                    You never said how people manage to go their whole life without them if they’re a necessity , I mean, if something is necessary then you would expect everyone to have it, right? Oxford defines the word necessity as “the fact of being required or indispensable” and I mean… If something is indispensable then it’s impossible to go without it… Heck, even the guy who attacked you didn’t consider them a necessity cuz that’s what he would have pointed at you if he did, right? Heck, how can the government decides that some people can’t get to have something that is indispensable? That’s exactly what gun control is, isn’t it? Let’s think about things that are indispensable… Government making it illegal for some people to eat? Impossible… To be clothed? No… To breathe? As if…

                    Hell… If they’re a necessity you should be against gun control and you should be fighting to get a gun in the hand of every single human being! What are people doing without something that is necessary??? 😱
