    Scared to say gun? I was using the language, “means,” because the rest of the comments were using that, and I literally referred to a gun as a societal failure.

      It’s a top level post so it isn’t based on the “other posts”. Trying to use different words for gun made for a very weird sounding post that made it sound like you were trying to avoid using the word for no reason. 🤷

        I was specifically referring to the comments where they posted the article called “means matter.”

          There’s this thing called a reply button. Nevermind, I see you’ve found it.

          Out of context (which it is, as a top level post) your post reads like a strange attempt to not say “gun” and that’s why I added the sarcastic remark in response which appears to have rustled your jimmies so much that here we are still exchanging posts for some reason.

            You’re right. I should copy and paste the same reply to all twenty comments talking about means.

            Yes, you’re right, you annoyed me enough to argue. Good job, here’s your cookie
